Stability Control Some models may also come equipped with a sport mode which allows the driver to reduce normal AdvanceTrac system intervention and provide a more spirited driving experience. To enter sport mode, toggle the stability control button twice rapidly. The message appears in the information display that the system is now in sport mode. For vehicles equipped with the selectable drive mode feature, AdvanceTrac sport mode is not available. You can utilize the performance oriented AdvanceTrac mode by selecting track drive mode.
