Your vehicle may have this feature. The Stabilitrak® system helps provide integrated control of the systems such as anti-lock brake system, traction control and engine control. This system automatically controls the brakes and engine to help prevent the vehicle from skidding when cornering on a slippery road surface or turning the steering wheel abruptly.
This system will activate when your vehicle speed reaches or exceeds 9 mph (15 km/h), and will deactivate when the vehicle speed reduces to below 9 mph (15 km/h).
You may hear a sound in the engine compartment for a few seconds when the engine is started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This means that the system is in the self-check mode, but does not indicate a malfunction.
If the vehicle is going to skid during driving, the traction control system warning light will blink and an alarm will sound intermittently. Adjust your driving accordingly.
This light warns that there is a problem somewhere in the traction control system or Stabilitrak®.
