1. Can someone locate my vehicle? To enhance

your privacy, and the privacy of others using

your vehicle, a stolen vehicle police report is

required for you to activate this service. You

must involve local law enforcement to have

SiriusXM Guardian™ locate your vehicle. We

may also locate the vehicle for other law

enforcement or government agencies,

subject to a valid court order telling SiriusXM

Guardian™ to do so. We will also provide the

service for FCA entities to locate a vehicle that

you have purchased through them.

2. How will I know if my vehicle is recovered?

After you provide the SiriusXM Guardian™

(ABS)

The ABS provides increased vehicle stability and

brake performance under most braking conditions.

The system automatically prevents wheel lock and

enhances vehicle control during braking.
The ABS performs a self-check cycle to ensure that

the ABS is working properly each time the vehicle

is started and driven. During this self-check, you

may hear a slight clicking sound as well as some

related motor noises.
The ABS is activated during braking when the

system detects one or more wheels are beginning

to lock. Road conditions such as ice, snow, gravel,

bumps, railroad tracks, loose debris, or panic stops

may increase the likelihood of ABS activation(s).
You also may experience the following normal

characteristics when the ABS activates:



ABS motor noise or clicking sounds (you may

continue to hear for a short time after the stop)



Brake pedal pulsations



A slight drop of the brake pedal at the end of the

stop

The ABS is designed to function with the Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) tires. Modification

may result in degraded ABS performance.

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Warning

Light

The yellow ABS Warning Light will turn on when the

ignition is placed in the ON/RUN mode and may

stay on for as long as four seconds.
If the ABS Warning Light remains on or comes on

while driving, it indicates that the anti-lock portion

of the brake system is not functioning and that

service is required. However, the conventional

brake system will continue to operate normally if

the ABS Warning Light is on.

WARNING!



The ABS contains sophisticated electronic

equipment that may be susceptible to interfer

ence caused by improperly installed or high

output radio transmitting equipment. This

interference can cause possible loss of

anti-lock braking capability. Installation of

such equipment should be performed by qual

ified professionals.



Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will diminish

their effectiveness and may lead to a collision.

Pumping makes the stopping distance longer.

Just press firmly on your brake pedal when you

need to slow down or stop.



The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of

physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it

increase braking or steering efficiency beyond

that afforded by the condition of the vehicle

brakes and tires or the traction afforded.



The ABS cannot prevent collisions, including

those resulting from excessive speed in turns,

following another vehicle too closely, or hydro

planing.



The capabilities of an ABS equipped vehicle

must never be exploited in a reckless or

dangerous manner that could jeopardize the

user’s safety or the safety of others.

WARNING!

276

SAFETY

If the ABS Warning Light is on, the brake system

should be serviced as soon as possible to restore

the benefits of Anti-Lock Brakes. If the ABS

Warning Light does not come on when the ignition

is placed in the ON/RUN mode, have the light

repaired as soon as possible.

Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced

Electronic Brake Control (EBC) system. This system

includes Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), Brake

Assist System (BAS), Electronic Brake Force

Distribution (EBD), Electronic Roll Mitigation

(ERM), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Hill Start

Assist (HSA), and Traction Control System (TCS).

These systems work together to enhance both

vehicle stability and control in various driving

conditions.
Your vehicle may also be equipped with Hill

Descent Control (HDC), Rain Brake Support (RBS),

Ready Alert Braking (RAB), and Trailer Sway

Control (TSC).

Brake System Warning Light

The red Brake System Warning Light will turn on

when the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN mode

and may stay on for as long as four seconds.
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on or

comes on while driving, it indicates that the brake

system is not functioning properly and that

immediate service is required. If the Brake System

Warning Light does not come on when the ignition

is placed in the ON/RUN mode, have the light

repaired as soon as possible.

Brake Assist System (BAS)

The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s

braking capability during emergency braking

maneuvers. The system detects an emergency

braking situation by sensing the rate and amount

of brake application and then applies optimum

pressure to the brakes. This can help reduce

braking distances. The BAS complements the

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). Applying the brakes

very quickly results in the best BAS assistance. To

receive the benefit of the system, you must apply

continuous braking pressure during the stopping

sequence (do not “pump” the brakes). Do not

reduce brake pedal pressure unless braking is no

longer desired. Once the brake pedal is released,

the BAS is deactivated.

Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD)

EBD manages the distribution of the braking

torque between the front and rear axles by limiting

braking pressure to the rear axle. This is done to

prevent overslip of the rear wheels to avoid vehicle

instability, and to prevent the rear axle from

entering ABS before the front axle.

Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM)

ERM anticipates the potential for wheel lift by

monitoring the driver’s steering wheel input and

the speed of the vehicle. When ERM determines

that the rate of change of the steering wheel angle

and vehicle’s speed are sufficient to potentially

cause wheel lift, it then applies the appropriate

brake and may also reduce engine power to lessen

WARNING!

The Brake Assist System (BAS) cannot prevent

the natural laws of physics from acting on the

vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded

by prevailing road conditions. BAS cannot

prevent collisions, including those resulting from

excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery

surfaces, or hydroplaning. The capabilities of a

BAS-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in

a reckless or dangerous manner, which could

jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of

others.

SAFETY

277

the chance that wheel lift will occur. ERM can only

reduce the chance of wheel lift occurring during

severe or evasive driving maneuvers; it cannot

prevent wheel lift due to other factors, such as

road conditions, leaving the roadway, or striking

objects or other vehicles.

NOTE:

ERM is disabled any time the ESC is in “Full Off”

mode (if equipped)

page 277.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC enhances directional control and stability of

the vehicle under various driving conditions. ESC

corrects for oversteering or understeering of the

vehicle by applying the brake of the appropriate

wheel(s) to counteract the above conditions.

Engine power may also be reduced to help the

vehicle maintain the desired path.



Oversteer — when the vehicle is turning more

than appropriate for the steering wheel position.



Understeer — when the vehicle is turning less

than appropriate for the steering wheel position.

ESC uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the

vehicle path intended by the driver and compares

it to the actual path of the vehicle. When the actual

path does not match the intended path, ESC

applies the brake of the appropriate wheel to

assist in counteracting the oversteer or understeer

condition.
The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

located in the instrument cluster will start to flash

as soon as the ESC system becomes active. The

ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light also

flashes when the TCS is active. If the ESC

Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light begins to

flash during acceleration, ease up on the

accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible.

Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the

prevailing road conditions.

WARNING!

Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road

conditions and driving conditions, influence the

chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur. ERM

cannot prevent all wheel lift or rollovers,

especially those that involve leaving the roadway

or striking objects or other vehicles. The

capabilities of an ERM-equipped vehicle must

never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous

manner which could jeopardize the user's safety

or the safety of others.

WARNING!



Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot

prevent the natural laws of physics from acting

on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction

afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESC

cannot prevent accidents, including those

resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving

on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC

also cannot prevent accidents resulting from

loss of vehicle control due to inappropriate

driver input for the conditions. Only a safe,

attentive, and skillful driver can prevent acci

dents. The capabilities of an ESC equipped

vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or

dangerous manner which could jeopardize the

user’s safety or the safety of others.



Vehicle modifications, or failure to properly

maintain your vehicle, may change the handling

characteristics of your vehicle, and may nega

tively affect the performance of the ESC system.

Changes to the steering system, suspension,

braking system, tire type and size or wheel size

may adversely affect ESC performance. Improp

erly inflated and unevenly worn tires may also

degrade ESC performance. Any vehicle modifi

cation or poor vehicle maintenance that

reduces the effectiveness of the ESC system

can increase the risk of loss of vehicle control,

vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.

278

SAFETY

ESC Operating Modes

Depending upon model and mode of operation, the

ESC system may have multiple operating modes.
ESC On
“ESC On” is the normal operating mode for the

ESC. Whenever the vehicle is started, the ESC

system will be in this mode. This mode should be

used for most driving conditions. Alternate ESC

modes should only be used for specific reasons as

noted in the following paragraphs.
Partial Off
This mode may be useful if the vehicle becomes

stuck. This mode may modify TCS and ESC

thresholds for activation, which allows for more

wheel spin than normally allowed.
To enter the “Partial Off” mode, momentarily push

the ESC OFF button and the ESC OFF Indicator

Light will illuminate. To turn the ESC on again,

momentarily push the ESC OFF button and the ESC

OFF Indicator Light will turn off.

NOTE:

For vehicles with multiple partial ESC modes, the

push and release of the button will toggle the ESC

modes. Multiple attempts may be required to

return to “ESC On”.

Full Off — If Equipped
The “Full Off” mode is intended for off-highway or

off-road use only and should not be used on any

public roadways. In this mode, TCS and ESC

features are turned off. To enter the “Full Off”

mode, push and hold the ESC OFF button for five

seconds while the vehicle is stopped with the

engine running. After five seconds, a chime will

sound, the ESC OFF Indicator Light will illuminate,

and the “ESC Off” message will display in the

instrument cluster. To turn ESC on again,

momentarily push the ESC OFF button.

NOTE:

System may switch from ESC “Full Off” to “Partial

Off” mode when vehicle exceeds a predetermined

speed. When the vehicle speed slows below the

predetermined speed the system will return to ESC

“Full Off”.
If equipped with Off Road+ and if Off Road+ is

active when "Full Off" mode is enabled by the

driver, ESC will not switch to "Partial Off" mode at

any speed and will remain in "Full Off" mode until

Off Road+ is exited or ESC is re-enabled by the

driver.

WARNING!



When in “Partial Off” mode, the TCS function

ality of ESC, except for the limited slip feature

described in the TCS section, has been

disabled and the ESC OFF Indicator Light will

be illuminated. When in “Partial Off” mode,

the engine power reduction feature of TCS is

disabled, and the enhanced vehicle stability

offered by the ESC system is reduced.



Trailer Sway Control (TSC) is disabled when

the ESC system is in the “Partial Off” mode.

WARNING!



In the ESC “Full Off” mode, the engine torque

reduction and stability features are disabled.

Therefore, enhanced vehicle stability offered

by the ESC system is unavailable. In an emer

gency evasive maneuver, the ESC system will

not engage to assist in maintaining stability.

ESC “Full Off” mode is intended for

off-highway or off-road use only.



The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot

prevent the natural laws of physics from

acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the

traction afforded by prevailing road condi

tions. ESC cannot prevent all accidents,

including those resulting from excessive

speed in turns, driving on very slippery

surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC also cannot

prevent collisions.

ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

And ESC OFF Indicator Light

The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator

Light in the instrument cluster will come

on when the ignition is turned to the “ESC

On” mode. It should go out with the

engine running. If the ESC Activation/Malfunction

Indicator Light comes on continuously with the

engine running, a malfunction has been detected

in the ESC system. If this light remains on after

several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been

driven several miles (km) at speeds greater than

30 mph (48 km/h), see an authorized dealer as

soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed

and corrected.
The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and

the ESC system becomes active. The ESC

Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light also flashes

when TCS is active. If the ESC Activation/

Malfunction Indicator Light begins to flash during

acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply

as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your

speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions.

The ESC OFF Indicator Light indicates the

customer has elected to have the

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) in a

reduced mode.

NOTE:



The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

and the ESC OFF Indicator Light come on

momentarily each time the ignition is placed in

the ON position.



Each time the ignition is place in the ON posi

tion, the ESC system will be on even if it was

turned off previously.



The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking

sounds when it is active. This is normal; the

sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive

following the maneuver that caused the ESC

activation.

Hill Descent Control (HDC) — If Equipped

HDC is intended for low speed off-road driving

while in 4WD Low. HDC maintains vehicle speed

while descending hills during various driving

situations. HDC controls vehicle speed by actively

controlling the brakes.
HDC has three states:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not

activate).

2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready but

activation conditions are not met, or driver is

actively overriding with brake or throttle

application).

3. Active (feature is enabled and actively

controlling vehicle speed).

Enabling HDC
HDC is enabled by pushing the HDC switch, but the

following conditions must also be met to enable

HDC:



The driveline is in 4WD Low.



The vehicle speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h).



The parking brake is released.



The driver door is closed. (If doors are attached,

then door must be closed. If doors are

detached, then driver seat belt must be

buckled.)

Activating HDC
Once HDC is enabled it will activate automatically

if driven down a grade of sufficient magnitude. The

set speed for HDC is selectable by the driver, and

can be adjusted by using the gear shift +/-. The

following summarizes the HDC set speeds:
HDC Target Set Speeds



P = No set speed. HDC may be enabled but will

not activate



R = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)



N = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)



D = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)



1st = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)



2nd = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)



3rd = 1.8 mph (3 km/h)

280

SAFETY



4th = 2.5 mph (4 km/h)



5th = 3.1 mph (5 km/h)



6th = 3.7 mph (6 km/h)



7th = 4.3 mph (7 km/h)



8th = 5.0 mph (8 km/h)



9th = 5.6 mph (9 km/h) – If Equipped

NOTE:

During HDC the +/- shifter input is used for HDC

target speed selection, but will not affect the gear

chosen by the transmission. When actively

controlling HDC the transmission will shift appro

priately for the driver-selected set speed and corre

sponding driving conditions.
Driver Override
The driver may override HDC activation with

throttle or brake application at any time.
Deactivating HDC
HDC will be deactivated but remain available if any

of the following conditions occur:



Driver overrides HDC set speed with throttle or

brake application.



Vehicle speed exceeds 20 mph (32 km/h) but

remains below 40 mph (64 km/h).



Vehicle is on a downhill grade of insufficient

magnitude, is on level ground, or is on an uphill

grade.



Vehicle is shifted to PARK.

Disabling HDC
HDC will be deactivated and disabled if any of the

following conditions occur:



The driver pushes the HDC switch.



The driveline is shifted out of 4WD Low.



The parking brake is applied.



The driver door opens. (Driver door opens if

doors are attached or driver seat belt is

unbuckled if doors are detached.)



The vehicle is driven greater than 20 mph

(32 km/h) for greater than 70 seconds.



The vehicle is driven greater than 40 mph

(64 km/h) (HDC exits immediately).



HDC detects excessive brake temperature.

Feedback To The Driver
The instrument cluster has an HDC icon and the

HDC switch has an indicator light, which offers

feedback to the driver about the state HDC is in.



The cluster icon and switch indicator light will

illuminate and remain on solid when HDC is

enabled or activated. This is the normal oper

ating condition for HDC.



The cluster icon and switch indicator light will

flash for several seconds then extinguish when

the driver pushes the HDC switch but enable

conditions are not met.



The cluster icon and switch indicator light will

flash for several seconds then extinguish when

HDC disables due to excess speed.



The cluster icon and switch indicator light will

flash when HDC deactivates due to overheated

brakes. The flashing will stop and HDC will acti

vate again once the brakes have cooled suffi

ciently.

Hill Start Assist (HSA)

The HSA system is designed to mitigate roll back

from a complete stop while on an incline. If the

driver releases the brake while stopped on an

incline, HSA will continue to hold the brake

pressure for a short period. If the driver does not

apply the throttle before this time expires, the

system will release brake pressure and the vehicle

will roll down the hill as normal.

WARNING!

HDC is only intended to assist the driver in

controlling vehicle speed when descending hills.

The driver must remain attentive to the driving

conditions and is responsible for maintaining a

safe vehicle speed.

SAFETY

281

The following conditions must be met in order for

HSA to activate:



The feature must be enabled.



The vehicle must be stopped.



The parking brake must be off.



The driver door must be closed. (If the doors are

attached, then the door must be closed. If the

doors are detached then the driver's seat belt

must be buckled.)



The vehicle must be on a sufficient grade.



The gear selection must match vehicle uphill

direction (i.e., vehicle facing uphill is in forward

gear; vehicle backing uphill is in REVERSE gear).



HSA will work in REVERSE gear and all forward

gears. The system will not activate if the trans

mission is in PARK or NEUTRAL. For vehicles

equipped with a manual transmission, if the

clutch is pressed, HSA will remain active.

Disabling And Enabling HSA

This feature can be turned on or turned off. To

change the current setting, refer to

page 207 for

further information.

Towing With HSA

HSA will also provide assistance to mitigate roll

back while towing a trailer.

Rain Brake Support (RBS)

RBS may improve braking performance in wet

conditions. It will periodically apply a small amount

of brake pressure to remove any water buildup on

the front brake rotors. It functions when the

windshield wipers are in LO or HI speed. When RBS

is active, there is no notification to the driver and

no driver interaction is required.

WARNING!

There may be situations where the Hill Start

Assist (HSA) will not activate and slight rolling

may occur, such as on minor hills or with a

loaded vehicle, or while pulling a trailer. HSA is

not a substitute for active driving involvement. It

is always the driver’s responsibility to be

attentive to distance to other vehicles, people,

and objects, and most importantly brake

operation to ensure safe operation of the vehicle

under all road conditions. Your complete

attention is always required while driving to

maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to

follow these warnings can result in a collision or

serious personal injury.

WARNING!



If you use a trailer brake controller with your

trailer, the trailer brakes may be activated and

deactivated with the brake switch. If so, there

may not be enough brake pressure to hold

both the vehicle and the trailer on a hill when

the brake pedal is released. In order to avoid

rolling down an incline while resuming accel

eration, manually activate the trailer brake or

apply more vehicle brake pressure prior to

releasing the brake pedal.



HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the

parking brake fully when exiting your vehicle.

Also, be certain to place the transmission in

PARK (P).



Failure to follow these warnings can result in a

collision or serious personal injury.

282

SAFETY

Ready Alert Braking (RAB)

RAB may reduce the time required to reach full

braking during emergency braking situations. It

anticipates when an emergency braking situation

may occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is

released by the driver. The Electronic Brake

Controller (EBC) will prepare the brake system for

a panic stop.

Rear Seat Reminder Alert (RSRA) —

If Equipped

RSRA will consider the presence of an object in the

rear seat when a rear entry/exit door is opened at

the beginning of each key cycle. To activate, the

rear door must be open for more than one second

and the vehicle must be placed in the RUN position

within 10 minutes. When the potential presence of

an object is determined and/or otherwise inferred,

a message will appear in the cluster display

reminding driver to check the rear seat(s)

immediately after key off, accompanied by an alert

upon exiting the vehicle.

Selec-Speed Control (SSC) — If Equipped

SSC is intended for off-road driving in

4WD Low only. SSC maintains vehicle

speed by actively controlling engine

torque and brakes.

SSC has three states:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not

activate)

2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready but

activation conditions are not met, or driver is

actively overriding with brake or throttle

application)

3. Active (feature is enabled and actively

controlling vehicle speed)

Enabling SSC
SSC is enabled by pushing the SSC switch, but the

following conditions must also be met to enable

SSC:



The driveline is in 4WD Low.



The vehicle speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h).



The parking brake is released.



The driver door is closed (If doors are attached,

the door must be closed. If doors are detached,

the driver seat belt must be buckled).



The driver is not applying throttle.

Activating SSC
Once SSC is enabled it will activate automatically

once the following conditions are met:



The driver releases the throttle.



The driver releases the brake.



The driver seat belt is buckled.



The transmission is in any selection other than

PARK.



Your vehicle speed is below 20 mph (32 km/h).



The driver door is closed. (If doors are attached,

the door must be closed. If doors are detached,

the driver seat belt must be buckled).

The set speed for SSC is selectable by the driver,

and can be adjusted by using the gear shift +/-.

Additionally, the SSC set speed may be reduced

when climbing a grade and the level of set speed

reduction depends on the magnitude of grade. The

following summarizes the SSC set speeds:
SSC Target Set Speeds



1st = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)



2nd = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)



3rd = 1.8 mph (3 km/h)



4th = 2.5 mph (4 km/h)



5th = 3.1 mph (5 km/h)



6th = 3.7 mph (6 km/h)



7th = 4.3 mph (7 km/h)



8th = 5 mph (8 km/h)



9th = 5.6 mph (9 km/h) — if equipped



REVERSE = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)



NEUTRAL = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)
