When you first start your vehicle and begin to drive
away, the system performs several diagnostic
checks to insure there are no problems. You may
hear or feel the system working. This is normal and
does not mean there is a problem with your vehicle.
If driving conditions delay system initialization, the
STABILITRAK NOT READY message may be
displayed. If this is the case, your vehicle does not
need servicing.

For more information on the stability messages,
see DIC Warnings and Messages on page 202.

When the StabiliTrak

®

system is both on and
actively controlling
the stability of the
vehicle, the StabiliTrak

®

light will blink for the
duration of the event.

You may also feel or hear the system working.
This is normal.

The StabiliTrak

®

disable

button is located on
the transmission
shift handle.

The StabiliTrak

®

system has three modes of
