The RSC system works in conjunction with the AdvanceTrac system to
further enhance the vehicle’s overall stability during aggressive
maneuvers. The system helps maintain roll stability of the vehicle during

• Taking a turn too fast
• Quick maneuvering to avoid an accident, pedestrian or obstacle

the instrument cluster remains on and the chime is active while the
engine is running, have the system serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately.
