Message Center The message center is located in the instrument panel cluster at the bottom of the tachometer. It gives you important safety and maintenance facts. If there's an engine-related and brake system problem that is specifically related to traction control, the traction control system will turn off and the warning message will come on. If the traction control system warning message comes on and stays on for an extended period of time when the system is turned on, your vehicle needs service.
