Note:
If your vehicle sustains damage to
the bumper or fascia leaving it misaligned
or bent, it could alter the sensing zone
causing inaccurate measurement of
obstacles or false alerts.
Note: Vehicle loading and suspension
changes can impact the angle of the sensors
and may change the normal detection zone
of the system resulting in inaccurate
measurement of obstacles or false alerts.
Note: When you connect a trailer, the
system may detect the trailer and provide
an alert, or the system turns off. If the
system does not turn off, switch the system
off manually after you connect the trailer.
Note: You may experience reduced system
performance on road surfaces that limit
deceleration. For example, roads with ice,
loose gravel, mud or sand.

HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK
WARNING: Vehicle modifications
involving braking system, aftermarket
roof racks, suspension, steering system,
tire construction and wheel and tire size
may change the handling characteristics
of your vehicle and may adversely affect
the performance of the electronic
stability control system. In addition,
installing any stereo speakers may
interfere with and adversely affect the
electronic stability control system.
Reducing the effectiveness of the
electronic stability control system could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death. WARNING:
Remember that even
advanced technology cannot defy the
laws of physics. It's always possible to
lose control of a vehicle due to
inappropriate driver input for the
conditions. Aggressive driving on any
road condition can cause you to lose
control of your vehicle increasing the risk
of personal injury or property damage.
Activation of the electronic stability
control system is an indication that at
least some of the tires have exceeded
their ability to grip the road; this could
reduce the operator's ability to control
the vehicle potentially resulting in a loss
of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,
personal injury and death. WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
If a driving condition activates either the
stability control or traction control you may
experience the following conditions:
• The stability and traction control light
flashes.
• Your vehicle slows down.
• Reduced engine power.
The stability control system has several
features built into it to help you maintain
control of your vehicle:
Electronic Stability Control
Electronic stability control enhances your
vehicle ’s ability to prevent skids or lateral
slides by applying brakes to one or more
of the wheels individually and, if necessary,
reducing engine power.
Roll Stability Control
Roll stability control enhances your
vehicle ’s ability to prevent rollovers by
detecting your vehicle ’s roll motion and
the rate at which it changes by applying
the brakes to one or more wheels
individually.
Curve Control
Curve control enhances your vehicle ’s
ability to follow the road when cornering
severely or avoiding objects in the roadway.
Curve control operates by reducing engine
power and, if necessary, applying brakes
to one or more of the wheels individually.

WHAT IS DRIVE MODE
CONTROL
Your vehicle has various drive modes that
you can select for different driving
conditions. Depending on the drive mode
that you select, the system adjusts various
vehicle settings.
HOW DOES DRIVE MODE
CONTROL WORK - RAPTOR
Selectable drive modes change various
electronic and mechanical settings within
your vehicle to tailor its performance and
driving characteristics to on-road or
off-road driving conditions. Steering feel
and effort, traction control, stability
control, chassis controls, powertrain
response, transmission shift points,
four-wheel driveline settings, exhaust noise
level and suspension dampening are
automatically altered to a pre-determined
setting depending upon the drive mode
that you select.
Note:
Your vehicle has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor all systems for
proper operation. If a drive mode is
unavailable due to a system fault, your
vehicle defaults to normal mode and the
driveline remains in the four-wheel drive
setting that you last selected prior to the
system fault. Note:
Your vehicle reverts to normal mode
each time you start it. If you shut your
vehicle off in a drive mode other than
normal mode, at startup the instrument
cluster screen displays a pop-up asking if
you would like to return to your last used
drive mode. If you select yes to the pop-up,
your vehicle returns to the last selected drive
mode and the default four-wheel driveline
setting associated with that drive mode. If
you select no, your vehicle remains in normal
mode and the default four-wheel driveline
setting associated with that drive mode. If
you do not select yes or no, the pop-up
message times out, your vehicle remains in
normal mode, and the four-wheel driveline
setting remains in its last used setting.
Note: Do not use the electronic locking
differential on dry, hard surfaces. Doing so
produces excessive noise, vibration and
increases tire wear. See Electronic Locking
Differential (page 301).

•
Comfort – Slightly more assist for
driver preference and daily driving ease.
• Off-road – Similar assist to Normal
with added damping for improved
control during off-road driving.
After selecting the desired setting, you may
feel a soft feedback bump in the steering
wheel when the changeover occurs.
Note: If you disconnect or remove the
battery, the steering system defaults to
normal.
Selecting a Suspension Mode To change the suspension feel,
press the button on the steering
wheel. The first press displays a
pop-up message in the instrument cluster
display for the selected mode and
subsequent presses changes the selected
mode.
Modes:

• Sport – Slightly stiffer suspension with
emphasis on handling and control.
• Off-road – Maximizes shock
performance in extreme off-road
environments.
Selecting an Exhaust Mode To change the exhaust sound,
press the button on the steering
wheel. The first press displays a
pop-up message in the instrument cluster
display for the selected mode and
subsequent presses changes the selected
mode.
Modes:
• Normal – Default setting provides a
balance of comfort and feedback.
• Sport – Slightly louder than normal for
spirited driving. •
Baja – Loudest setting for off-road use
only. Maximum exhaust noise under all
driving conditions.
