If cruise control is being used when StabiliTrak
activates, the cruise control automatically disengages.
The cruise control can be re-engaged when road
conditions allow. See Cruise Control on page 3-10.
If there is a problem detected with StabiliTrak,
a SERVICE STAB SYS message displays on the
Driver Information Center (DIC). See DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 3-38 for more information.
When this message is displayed, the system is not
working. Adjust your driving accordingly.
StabiliTrak and Traction Control (TCS) come on
automatically whenever the vehicle is started and
the systems are reset with each ignition cycle.
However, when the transfer case is placed in
Four-Wheel-Low mode, StabiliTrak is automatically
disabled. See Four-Wheel Drive on page 2-26 for more
information. It is recommended to leave the system on
for normal driving conditions, but it may be necessary to
turn the TCS portion of the system off if the vehicle is
stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow, and it is necessary to
“rock” the vehicle to attempt to free it. If traction control
is turned off, only the brake-traction control portion of
traction control will work. The engine speed management
will be disabled. In this mode, engine power is not
reduced automatically and the drive wheels can spin
more freely. This can cause the brake-traction control
to activate constantly. See If Your Vehicle is Stuck in
Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow on page 4-31.
The StabiliTrak/TCS light
will flash on the instrument
panel cluster when the
TCS system or StabiliTrak
is both on and activated.
The StabiliTrak/TCS
button is located on the
instrument panel.
