Antilock Brake System With Electronic Stability Program (ESP)

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)

ALL-SPEED TRACTION CONTROL

The traction control system is an all-speed traction control. ALL Speed Traction Control enhances mobility and prevents wheel slip when accelerating on slippery surfaces by applying the brakes and / or activation engine control.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)

ESP(R) (Electronic Stability Program), which includes a Brake Assist feature, is standard on some models and optional on others. ESP aids the driver in maintaining vehicle directional stability. ESP will do whatever can be done, within the limits of available traction, to keep the car on course.

ESP uses the following components in addition ABS to operate:

- Active Brake Booster
- Brake Pressure Sensor
- Dynamics Sensor
- Steering Angle Sensor (SAS)

The Active Brake Booster is part of the Power Brake Booster. The Brake Pressure Sensor is mounted in the HCU. This Sensor is not serviceable separately. The Dynamics Sensor is mounted under the center. The Steering Angle Sensor is located in the steering column.
