Traction Control System (TCS)
This system monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of
the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, brake
pressure is applied to the slipping wheel(s) and engine
power is reduced to provide enhanced acceleration and
stability. A feature of the TCS system, Brake Limited
Differential (BLD), functions similar to a limited slip
differential and controls the wheel spin across a driven
axle. If one wheel on a driven axle is spinning faster than
the other, the system will apply the brake of the spinning
wheel. This will allow more engine torque to be applied
to the wheel that is not spinning. This feature remains
active even if TCS and ESC are in the “Partial Off” mode
or the “Full Off” mode. Refer to “Electronic Stability
Control (ESC)” in this section for further information.
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 sens-
ing 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 brak-
ing 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.

MAINTAINING AND CARING FOR YOUR VEHICLE 529

Chassis
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Manual Transmission – If Equipped We recommend you use MOPAR C Series Manual &
Dual Dry Clutch Transmission Fluid.
Automatic Transmission – If Equipped Use only MOPAR ZF 8&9 Speed ATF Automatic Trans-
mission Fluid, or equivalent. Failure to use the correct
fluid may affect the function or performance of your
transmission.
Power Transfer Unit (PTU) – If Equipped We recommended you use of synthetic lubricant SAE
75W-90 API GL5
Rear Differential (RDM) – If Equipped We recommended you use of synthetic lubricant SAE
75W-90 API GL5
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use MOPAR DOT 4. If DOT 4 brake
fluid is not available, then DOT 3 is acceptable.
