STABILITY SECURE MODE
If your All-Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicle has the Active
Steering with Enhanced StabiliTrak option, this
message displays when the stability control system
is in the secure mode. Stability Secure Mode is set
automatically when certain system faults or vehicle
conditions are detected. When the Stability Secure
Mode is activated, the stability control system will not
respond to driver requests to change the stability mode
until the next ignition cycle or until the vehicle condition
or fault is returned to normal. See Enhanced
StabiliTrak
®
on page 57
for more information.
STABILITY SYS (System) ACTIVE
This message displays any time the StabiliTrak system
or Enhanced StabiliTrak system is actively assisting
with directional control of the vehicle. Slippery road
conditions may exist when this message is displayed,
so adjust your driving accordingly. This message may
stay on for a few seconds after StabiliTrak stops
assisting with directional control of the vehicle. See
StabiliTrak

System
on page 56
or Enhanced

STABILITY SYS (System) NOT READY
This message displays if the StabiliTrak system is not
ready. Two conditions may cause this message to
display:
.
The vehicle needs to be driven in a straight line
until the sensors are centered. Once the sensors
are centered, the StabiliTrak system is ready and
the STABILITY SYS READY message displays.
.
The system needs to warm up. This may occur
when first starting your vehicle and driving away
during cold winter weather. This is normal. To
acknowledge this message, press the reset button.
The StabiliTrak performance is affected until the
STABILITY SYS READY message is displayed in the
DIC. See StabiliTrak

Enhanced StabiliTrak is turned off using the TC (traction
control) on/off button. See Traction Control System
