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.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The electric power
steering system has diagnostic checks that
continuously monitor the system. If a fault
is detected, a message displays in the
information display. Stop your vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so. Switch the
vehicle off. After at least 10 seconds, switch
the vehicle on and watch the information
display for a steering system warning
message. If a steering system warning
message returns, have the system checked
as soon as possible. WARNING:
If the system detects an
error, you may not feel a difference in the
steering, however a serious condition may
exist. Have your vehicle checked as soon
as possible. Failure to do so may result in
loss of steering control. Adapt your speed and driving behavior
according to reduced steering assist.
Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort to steer. This occurs to prevent
internal overheating and damage to the
steering system. If this occurs, you will not
lose the ability to steer your vehicle manually
nor will it cause damage to the system.
Normal steering and driving allows the
system to cool down and steering assist
returns to normal.
Note:
There is no fluid reservoir to check or
fill.
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ADAPTIVE STEERING
(If Equipped)
The adaptive steering system changes the
steering ratio with changes to vehicle speed,
optimizing the steering response in all
conditions. The system also changes when
you switch on the transmission tow/haul
feature. When you select the tow/haul button,
the adaptive steering system reduces vehicle
sensitivity to steering inputs at higher vehicle
speeds, while maintaining the ease of
parking and maneuverability at low speeds. Note:
The adaptive steering system
continuously monitors for faults. If the system
detects a fault, a message appears in the
information display. If a red warning
message displays, stop your vehicle as soon
as it is safe to do so. The message could
clear if the fault is no longer present. If an
adaptive steering system warning message
appears each time you start your vehicle,
have the system checked as soon as
possible.
Note: The system has a locking device. It
remains mechanically locked at a fixed
steering ratio with the lock engaged. You
may notice a click when you turn your
vehicle on or off.
Note: If your vehicle loses electrical power
or detects a fault when you are driving, the
system shuts down and you retain a normal
steering function with a fixed steering ratio.
During this time, it is possible that the
steering wheel could not be straight when
the vehicle is driving straight ahead. In
addition, you could notice that the steering
wheel angle required to steer your vehicle
could be different.

Why does active park assist not search for
a parking space?
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your
vehicle must be moving forward to be
able to detect a parking space.
Why does active park assist not offer a
parking space? The sensors could be blocked. For
example, snow, ice or large
accumulations of dirt. Blocked sensors
can affect how the system functions.
Why does active park assist not offer a
parking space? The sensors in the front or rear bumper
could be damaged.
Why does active park assist not offer a
parking space? There is not enough room in the parking
space for your vehicle to safely park.
Why does active park assist not offer a
parking space? There is not enough space for the

22 mph (35 km/h)
for parallel parking or
greater than 19 mph (30 km/h) for
perpendicular parking.
Why does active park assist not offer a
parking space? You recently disconnected or replaced
the battery. After you reconnect the
battery you must drive your vehicle on
a straight road for a short period of time.
Why does active park assist not correctly
position the vehicle into a parking space? An irregular curb along the parking
space prevents the system from
correctly aligning your vehicle. Why does active park assist not correctly
position the vehicle into a parking space?
Vehicles or objects bordering the space
could not be correctly parked.
Why does active park assist not correctly
position the vehicle into a parking space? Your vehicle stopped too far past the
parking space.
Why does active park assist not correctly
position the vehicle into a parking space? The tires are not correctly installed or
maintained. For example, using a spare
tire, not inflated correctly, improper size,
or of different sizes.
Why does active park assist not correctly
position the vehicle into a parking space? A repair or alteration changed the
detection capabilities.
Why does active park assist not correctly
position the vehicle into a parking space? A parked vehicle has a high attachment.

LANE CENTERING
HOW DOES LANE CENTERING WORK
Adaptive cruise control with lane centering
uses radar and camera sensors to help keep
your vehicle in the middle of the lane by
applying continuous assistance steering
torque input toward the lane center on
highways. Note:
The adaptive cruise control gap setting
operates normally.
If you drive off-center within the lane, the
system sets and maintains that preferred lane
position. The system provides continuous
assistance steering torque input toward the
preferred position.
Note: The system can only set preferred lane
positions within the lane.
Note: If the system cancels, the preferred
position erases. On the next activation, the
system provides continuous assistance
steering torque input toward the lane center.
LANE CENTERING PRECAUTIONS WARNING:
Do not use the system
when towing a trailer. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death. WARNING: Do not use the system if
any changes or modifications to the
steering wheel have been made. Any
changes or modifications to the steering
wheel could affect the functionality or
