conditions and require more wheel
spin. SeeIf the Vehicle is Stuck on
page 9‑22. To turn the StabiliTrak
system on or off, see StabiliTrak
®
System on page 9‑45.

which could occur if StabiliTrak
activates continuously for an
extended period of time.

stability system takes longer
than usual to complete its
diagnostic checks due to driving
conditions.
