StabiliTrak® System Your vehicle may be equipped with a vehicle stability enhancement system called StabiliTrak®. It is an advanced computer controlled system that assists you with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. StabiliTrak® activates when the computer senses a discrepancy between your intended path and the direction the vehicle is actually traveling. StabiliTrak® selectively applies braking pressure at any one of the vehicle's brakes to help steer the vehicle in the direction which you are steering. This symbol will appear when the StabiliTrak® system is activated. This light is located on the instrument panel cluster. When the system is on, this light will come on to let you know if there's a problem, or if the system has been turned off. StabiliTrak® comes on automatically whenever you start your vehicle. To help assist you with directional control of the vehicle, you should always leave the system on. You can turn the traction control system and StabiliTrak® off if you ever need to by pressing and holding the TC (traction control) on/off button. press the TC button again to turn StabiliTrak® and the traction control system back on. See Traction Control System (TCS) on page 262 for more information. If your vehicle is in cruise control when the StabiliTrak® activates, the cruise control will automatically disengage. When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may reengage the cruise control. See Cruise Control on page 171 for more information. 265 When you first start your vehicle and begin to drive away, the system performs several diagnostic checks to insure there are no problems. You may hear or feel the system working. This is normal and does not mean there is a problem with your vehicle.
