VSA® OFF Indicator 1 VSA® (Vehicle Stability Assist), aka ESC (Electronic Stability Control), System Without VSA®, your vehicle will have normal braking and cornering ability, but it will not have VSA® traction and stability enhancement. In certain unusual conditions when your vehicle gets stuck in shallow mud or fresh snow, it may be easier to free it with VSA® temporarily switched off. When the VSA® system is off, the traction control system is also off. You should only attempt to free your vehicle with VSA® off if you are not able to free it when the system is on. Immediately after freeing your vehicle, be sure to switch VSA® on again. We do not recommend driving your vehicle with the VSA® and traction control systems switched off. If the low tire pressure, or TPMS indicator comes on or blinks, the VSA® system comes on automatically. In this case, you cannot turn the system off by pressing the button. VSA® stops and the indicator comes on. To turn it on again, press the button until you hear a beep. (VSA® OFF) TOC Driving VSA® is turned on every time you start the engine, even if you turned it off the last time you drove the vehicle.
