Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System

The Vehicle Stability Assist system

helps to stabilize the vehicle during
cornering if the car turns more or
less than desired. It also assists you
in maintaining traction while
accelerating on loose or slippery
road surfaces. It does this by
regulating the engine's output, and
by selectively applying braking.

When VSA activates, you may notice
that the engine does not respond to
the accelerator in the same way it

does at other times. You will also see

the VSA Activation Indicator blink.

The VSA system cannot enhance the

car's driving stability in all situations
and does not control your vehicle's
entire braking system. It is still your
responsibility to drive and corner at
reasonable speeds and to leave a
sufficient margin of safety.
