For vehicles with the Active Steering with Enhanced
StabiliTrak option, in some cases when the SERVICE
STABILITY SYS message is displayed, a larger degree
of steering wheel input at low vehicle speeds and a
smaller degree of steering wheel input at higher vehicle
speeds may be required.
SERVICE STEERING SYS (System)
Your vehicle has a speed variable assist steering
system. Your All-Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicle may have
the Active Steering with Enhanced StabiliTrak option.
See Active Steering under Steering on page 511.
This message displays if a problem is detected with the
speed variable assist steering system or the Active
Steering system. When this message is displayed, you
may notice that the effort required to steer the vehicle
increases or feels heavier, but you will still be able to
steer the vehicle. See Steering
on page 511
for more
information. Have the steering system inspected by
your dealer/retailer as soon as possible.
If the SERVICE STEERING SYS message appears
because the Active Steering system needs service,
normal power steering is still operational. However,
compared to Active Steering, normal power steering
requires a larger degree of steering wheel input at low
vehicle speeds and a smaller degree of steering wheel
input at high vehicle speeds. The center position of the
steering wheel may be different. You may continue to
drive your vehicle with normal power steering, but have
the steering system inspected by your dealer/retailer as
soon as possible.
If the Active Steering system needs service, the system
may be operating in the Stability Secure Mode and the
STABILITY SECURE MODE message will display.
See Enhanced StabiliTrak
®
on page 57.
When certain steering faults are present, the vehicle
speed may be limited. If vehicle speed is limited, the
SPEED LIMITED TO XXX message will display.
See Active Steering under Steering on page 511.
