trAIler sWAy Control
Working in conjunction with StabiliTrak Electronic
Stability Control, the new Trailer Sway Control (single
rear wheel models only) feature senses trailer sway
and automatically applies the truck’s brakes and
reduces engine power, if necessary, to help you get
back on track.
InteGrAted trAIler BrAke Controller
The dash-mounted controls provide measured brake
force to the electric-controlled trailer brakes, giving
you an added measure of confidence and security while
towing. Thanks to this available feature, you can say
good-bye to that aftermarket brake controller.
Silverado HD is more secure. Learn how we did it at chevy.com/NewSilveradoHD.
BrAkInG CommunICAtIon
The StabiliTrak control module allows components to “talk”
to each other and vary the amount of braking needed based
on the truck, the load and the grade. That’s an important
conversation, since having the muscle to get a big load
moving is just the first part of the towing equation. The
second part is having the brains to slow it down.
stABIlItrAk eleCtronIC stABIlIty Control
StabiliTrak, standard on single rear wheel models, improves
vehicle stability, particularly during emergency maneuvers.
The StabiliTrak control module compares your steering
input with the vehicle’s actual response and then, if
necessary, makes small, individual brake and engine
torque applications to enhance control and help you
keep on track. StabiliTrak automatically intervenes when
it senses loss of lateral traction (sideslip), understeer
(plowing) or oversteer (fishtailing).
