ESP® trailer stabilization
If your vehicle with trailer (vehicle/trailer combination) begins to lurch, you can only stabilize the vehicle/trailer combination by depressing the brake firmly.
In this situation, ESP® assists you and can detect if the vehicle/trailer combination begins to lurch. ESP® slows the vehicle down by braking and limiting the engine output until the vehicle/trailer combination has stabilized.
Trailer stabilization is active from a speed of approximately 40 mph(65 km/h).
WARNING
The system will not be able to assist when the trailer jackknifes
- if the ESP® has switched off due to a malfunction
- on wet or icy roads
- on roads with slippery surface
- in sand or gravel
Trailers with a high center of gravity may tip over before the system recognizes swaying of the trailer.
Trailer stabilization does not work if ESP® is deactivated or disabled because of a malfunction.
