Also known as Electronic Stability Control (ESC), this helps stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less than what was intended. It assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces by regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes.
VSA is turned on every time you start the vehicle. If you turn VSA off, your vehicle has normal braking and cornering ability, but VSA traction and stability enhancement become less effective.
Press and hold the VSA OFF button until you hear a beep to turn VSA on or off. The VSA Off indicator appears when the system is off.
When VSA is off, traction control allows the wheels to spin more freely at low speed. This can be helpful when trying to free your vehicle if it is stuck in mud or snow.

Slow down or stop your vehicle, and keep it from moving when parked.
Press the brake pedal to slow down or stop your vehicle from moving.
Apply the electric parking brake as you’re getting ready to step out of the vehicle once your drive is complete.
During hard or emergency braking, the system increases braking force. The brake pedal may move slightly or make a noise; this is normal. Continue to hold the brake pedal firmly down.
During hard or emergency braking, the system rapidly pumps the brakes to prevent wheel lockup and help you maintain steering control. The brake pedal may pulsate slightly during ABS operation; this is normal. Do not pump the brake pedal, and continue to hold it firmly down.
You may periodically hear electric motor sounds from the engine compartment. Also, you may feel vibration through the vehicle while the ABS is active. These are all normal.
