GMC Terrain: Performance and Maintenance / Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control
The Traction Control System (TCS)
limits wheel slip. The system is on
when the vehicle is started.
The StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system assists with
directional control of the vehicle in
difficult driving conditions. The
system is on when the vehicle is
started.
TCS and StabiliTrak/ESC can be
turned off or on using the Driver
Information Center (DIC) controls.
See Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control.
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The low tire pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in
pressure of one of the vehicle's
tires...
Other information:
This light comes on briefly when the
engine is started.
If the light does not come on, have
the vehicle serviced by your dealer.
If the system is working normally,
the indicator light turns off.
If the light is on and not flashing, the
TCS and potentially the StabiliTrak/
ESC system have been disabled...

Plain water, or other liquids such
as alcohol, can boil before the
proper coolant mixture will. With
plain water or the wrong mixture,
the engine could get too hot but there would not be an overheat
warning. The engine could catch
fire and you or others could be
burned...
