If the SERVICE STABILITRAK message (or StabiliTrak

service light) does not clear itself after restarting the

vehicle, see your dealer/retailer for service.

Adding non-GM accessories can affect the vehicle’s

performance. See Accessories and Modiﬁcations on

page 5-3 for more information.

Locking Rear Axle

Vehicles with a locking rear axle can give more traction

on snow, mud, ice, sand or gravel. It works like a

standard axle most of the time, but when traction is low,

this feature will allow the rear wheel with the most

traction to move the vehicle.

All-Wheel Drive (AWD) System

With this feature, engine power is sent to all four wheels

at all times. This is like four-wheel drive, but there is

no separate lever or switch to engage or disengage the

front axle. It is fully automatic, and adjusts itself as

needed for road conditions.

Steering

Power Steering

If power steering assist is lost because the engine stops

or the system is not functioning, the vehicle can be

steered but it will take more effort.

Steering Tips

It is important to take curves at a reasonable speed.

Traction in a curve depends on the condition of the tires

and the road surface, the angle at which the curve is

banked, and vehicle speed. While in a curve, speed is

the one factor that can be controlled.

If there is a need to reduce speed, do it before entering

the curve, while the front wheels are straight.

Try to adjust the speed so you can drive through the

curve. Maintain a reasonable, steady speed. Wait to

accelerate until out of the curve, and then accelerate

gently into the straightaway.
