BRAKES – FREQUENTLY ASKEDQUESTIONS
Is it normal for my brakes to makenoise?
Occasional brake noise is normal. If ametal-to-metal, continuous grinding,or continuous squeal sound is present,the brake lining could be worn-out.Have the system checked by anauthorized dealer.
There is an electrical motor soundwhen I press on the brake pedal oractivate the park brake switch. Is thisnormal?
Yes, those sounds are the electronicbrake booster or the electronic parkbrake operating.
Note: Brake dust could accumulate on thewheels, even under normal drivingconditions. Some dust is normal as thebrakes wear and does not contribute tobrake noise. See Cleaning Wheels (page430).

REVERSE BRAKING ASSIST –FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why is reverse braking assist unavailable?
•Make sure the reverse braking assist ison. See Switching Reverse BrakingAssist On and Off (page 236).
•Make sure that all doors, liftgate ortailgate and hood are closed. Drive thevehicle on a straight road for a shortperiod. If the message remains, havethe system checked.
•If your vehicle has the cross traffic alertsystem, make sure it is on. SeeSwitching Cross Traffic Alert Onand Off (page 326).
•Make sure the rear parking aid systemis on. See Parking Aids (page 261).
•Make sure the traction control is on.See Switching Traction Control Onand Off (page 245).
Note:The traction control automaticallyturns off if four-wheel drive low and certaindrive modes such as mud/ruts andsnow/sand is activated.
•Your vehicle may have sustained a rearend impact. Have the sensors checkedfor proper coverage and operation.
•An anti-lock brake, traction control orstability control event may haveoccurred. Reverse braking assistresumes operation when the event iscomplete.
•Make sure the rear view camera and360 degree camera are not dirty orobstructed. If dirty, clean the camera.If the message still appears aftercleaning the camera, wait a short timefor the message to clear. If themessage does not clear, have thesystem checked.

WHAT IS TRACTION CONTROL
The traction control system helps to avoiddrive wheel spin and loss of traction.
HOW DOES TRACTION
CONTROL WORK
If your wheels begin to spin, the loss oftraction can compromise steering controland stability of the vehicle. The tractioncontrol system applies the brakes toindividual wheels and when needed,reduces engine power at the same time toincrease traction.
SWITCHING TRACTION
CONTROL ON AND OFF
WARNING: Operating your vehiclewith the traction control disabled couldlead to an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.
The traction control system turns on eachtime you switch the ignition on.
The button for the stability and tractioncontrol system is on the instrument panel.
Press and release the button to switchtraction control off. The stability controlsystem remains fully active, to switch it off,press and hold the button for a fewseconds, then release.
When you switch traction control off, amessage and an illuminated icon appearon the instrument cluster.
Press the switch again to turn the tractioncontrol system back on to normaloperation.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,switching traction control off may bebeneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.

HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK
WARNING: Vehicle modificationsinvolving braking system, aftermarketroof racks, suspension, steering system,tire construction and wheel and tire sizemay change the handling characteristicsof your vehicle and may adversely affectthe performance of the electronicstability control system. In addition,installing any stereo speakers mayinterfere with and adversely affect theelectronic stability control system.Reducing the effectiveness of theelectronic stability control system couldlead to an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.
WARNING: Remember that evenadvanced technology cannot defy thelaws of physics. It's always possible tolose control of a vehicle due toinappropriate driver input for theconditions. Aggressive driving on anyroad condition can cause you to losecontrol of your vehicle increasing the riskof personal injury or property damage.Activation of the electronic stabilitycontrol system is an indication that atleast some of the tires have exceededtheir ability to grip the road; this couldreduce the operator's ability to controlthe vehicle potentially resulting in a lossof vehicle control, vehicle rollover,personal injury and death.
WARNING: You are responsible forcontrolling your vehicle at all times. Thesystem is designed to be an aid and doesnot relieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention. Failureto follow this instruction could result inthe loss of control of your vehicle,personal injury or death.
If a driving condition activates either thestability control or traction control you mayexperience the following conditions:
•The stability and traction control lightflashes.
•Your vehicle slows down.
•Reduced engine power.
The stability control system has severalfeatures built into it to help you maintaincontrol of your vehicle:
Electronic Stability Control
Electronic stability control enhances yourvehicle’s ability to prevent skids or lateralslides by applying brakes to one or moreof the wheels individually and, if necessary,reducing engine power.
Roll Stability Control
Roll stability control enhances yourvehicle’s ability to prevent rollovers bydetecting your vehicle’s roll motion andthe rate at which it changes by applyingthe brakes to one or more wheelsindividually.
Curve Control
Curve control enhances your vehicle’sability to follow the road when corneringseverely or avoiding objects in the roadway.Curve control operates by reducing enginepower and, if necessary, applying brakesto one or more of the wheels individually.

Side Wind Stabilization
Side wind stabilization is an advancedfeature that works by carefully applyingthe brakes on one side of the vehicle toreduce the effect of a side wind gust onthe vehicle's path.
Traction Control
Traction control enhances your vehicle’sability to maintain traction of the wheelsby detecting and controlling wheel spin.See Traction Control (page 245).
