GMC Terrain: Driving Information / Off-Road Recovery

The vehicle's right wheels can drop
off the edge of a road onto the
shoulder while driving. Follow
these tips:

- Turn the steering wheel about

right front tire contacts the
pavement edge.
- Turn the steering wheel to go
straight down the roadway.

lose cornering force...
