Sentences with phrase «vehicle stability during»

Adjustments to the electronic brake force distribution programming enhance vehicle stability during mixed braking and cornering manoeuvres.

Not exact matches

The Anti-Rebound bar increases stability during a vehicle crash by lowering rebound rotation by 40 %.

In the event of a failure during heavy cornering it is possible the rear wheels are locked at a slight angle causing a very mild crab crawl driving line but otherwise not affecting the vehicle's stability and safety.

From Electronic Brake - pressure Distribution (EBD), which helps maintain appropriate stopping power during a hard - braking situation, to Electronic Stability Control (ESC), which can adjust engine throttle and apply corrective forces to the wheels that need them most, there are in total seven stability - enhancing systems to help you maintain control of your vehicle.

Other standard safety features on the vehicle include traction control to maximize tire grip with the road, electronic vehicle stability and roll mitigation for maintaining the intended driving path even during sudden maneuvers, high - beam daytime running lights to increase conspicuity, trailer sway damping for greater control of whatever you are pulling behind you, four - wheel disc brakes for shortening stopping distance, and an anti-lock braking system for preventing the wheels from locking up during hard stops.

StabiliTrak ® electronic stability control system improves vehicle stability, particularly on slick surfaces or during emergency maneuvers.

ABS doesn't make much difference in stopping distances on dry roads, although it can enhance vehicle stability and allow the driver to maintain steering control during an emergency stop, when conventional brakes might allow wheel lockup and skidding.

ABS works with a vehicle's normal service brakes to decrease stopping distance and increase the control and stability of the vehicle during hard braking.

- Vehicle Stability Assist ™ (VSA ®), which further improves stability during cornering, is standard equipment on all types.

StabiliTrak electronic stability and traction control systems monitor vehicle speed and traction levels during sudden driving maneuvers to help automatically adjust braking and throttle percentages and keep the truck moving in the right direction.

A cowl stay enhancement is used to connect front side frame and A pillar, improving rigidity in the front of the car and increasing vehicle stability at high speeds and during lane changes.

While the new electric power steering has been integrated with more jobs, it now complements the electronic stability control system by helping stabilize the CR - V during heavy braking and introducing a degree of corrective steering input to mitigate understeer (when the vehicle wants to go straight instead of turn) and oversteer (when the vehicle wants to turn more than the driver intends).

Thermal stability is critical to ensuring durability, effectively eliminating the need to replace the battery pack during the normal lifespan of the vehicle.

At high speeds and during lane changes, the rear wheels angle in the direction of steering to increase vehicle stability.

The requirement that all vehicles sold in the U.S. come with electronic stability control, which has dramatically reduced rollovers during collisions (especially among SUVs).

(39 kg) raise the child into the adult belted zone • Anti-lock brakes (ABS) modulate the brakes for the driver to provide steering control while braking • Electronic Stability Program (ESP) applies selective braking or throttle reduction to control oversteer and understeer • Brake Assist ensures maximum braking action during panic stops • Traction Control reduces the throttle and / or applies selective braking to optimize traction during acceleration • Electronic Roll Mitigation determines when the vehicle is in a potential roll over condition and applies appropriate braking force to reduce the likelihood that such an event will occur • Rollover Sensing deploys seat - mounted side air bags, side - curtain air bags and seat - belt pretensioners • Trailer Sway Control helps maintain vehicle and trailer system stability by applying selective braking • Event Data Recorder records the nature of a malfunction or impact event for retrieval using a service diagnostic tool • Available ParkView ™ Rear Backup Camera displays the view behind the vehicle in the navigation display when backing up or parking • Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) alerts drivers to low tire pressure (s) to facilitate safe handling • Brake - park Interlock prevents automatic transaxle from being shifted out of Park or Neutral without first applying brakes • Side Guard Door Beams in front and rear doors provide occupant protection in the event of a side impact

ARLINGTON, Va. — An extension of antilock brake technology, electronic stability control (ESC) is designed to help drivers retain control of their vehicles during high - speed maneuvers or on slippery roads.

Based on these observations, the agency set the tractor lateral acceleration thresholds for roll stability during the 150 - foot J - turn maneuver at a maximum of 0.375 g at 3.0 seconds after the vehicle crossed the start gate and 0.350 g at 4.0 seconds after the vehicle crossed the start gate.
