No system, no matter how
sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Performance is limited
by available traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. When the ESP warning lamp
in the speedometer flashes, the driver needs to use less throttle and adapt speed
and driving behavior to prevailing road conditions. Always drive carefully, consistent
with conditions. Always wear your seat belt.
(2)
Not compatible with aftermarket
fabric-protecting coatings.

Late availability.
