Under these conditions, trailer
stability assist begins to stabilize the
vehicl e/trailer combination by
reducing the vehicle speed. The
control unit sends signals to
selectively apply the brakes and
regulate the engine output. The
brake lights of your vehicle will be
turned on automatically by the
system even if you do not keep the
pressu re on the brake pedal.
Your
vehicle is equipped with trailer
stability assist function. This
function works on the same sensors
as the vehicle stability assist (VSA)
system. This function helps to
stabilize the vehicl e/trailer
combination when the trailer
severely sways or oscillates. For
more information of the VSA system,
see page .
When the brakes are applied, the
trailer’s brake lights come on along
wi th the vehicle brake lights.
When the trailer stability assist
activates, you will see the VSA
activation indicator blink. There may
also be some noise from the VSA
hydraulic system. Trailer
stability assist cannot prevent
a loss of control. Always reduce the
ve hicle speed and steer firmly. Do
not brake suddenly or make quick
steering motion. It could cause the
trailertojackknifeorturnoverand
the system becomes ineffective.
Trailer stability assist cannot prevent
swaying that can occur in crosswinds
and in normal and emergency
driving maneuvers. It helps only to
stabilize the vehicl e/trailer
combination in these conditions,
after the oscillation becomes severe.
If
the function detects the vehicle/
trailer instability, it checks if the
swaying is caused by the trailer, and
if the trailer swaying or oscillation is
increasing.
The vehicle/trailer combination is
more affected by crosswinds,
buffeting, and improper tongue load.
These conditions can make the
trailer unstable, and cause it to sway. Always obey the recommended
speed limits f or towing a trailer, see
page . Trailer stability assist will also be
inef f ective while driving at high
speed or towing a trailer with a high
center or gravity.
