Notice: If the StabiliTrak
®
light comes on due to
heavy braking and/or because the traction control
system has been continuously active, do not allow
the wheel(s) of one axle to spin excessively. This
could lead to damage to the transfer case and costly
repairs not covered by the vehicle warranty.
Notice: If the wheel(s) of one axle is allowed to spin
excessively while the StabiliTrak, ABS and brake
warning lights and any relevant DIC messages are
displayed, the transfer case could be damaged. The
repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do not spin the wheel(s)
excessively while these lights and messages are
displayed.
StabiliTrak may activate on dry or rough roads or under
conditions such as heavy acceleration while turning
or abrupt upshifts/downshifts of the transmission.
When this happens, a reduction in acceleration may
be noticed, or a noise or vibration may be heard.
This is normal.
If cruise control is being used when the system activates,
the StabiliTrak light will flash and cruise control will
automatically disengage. Cruise control may be
reengaged when road conditions allow. See Cruise
Control on page 3-10.
StabiliTrak will turn off automatically if a problem is
detected in the system. The StabiliTrak light will come
on and SERVICE STABILITRAK will be displayed on
the DIC. For vehicles without a DIC, the StabiliTrak
light and the StabiliTrak service light will both come on.
