Your vehicle uses an independent shortflong arm rear suspension. All the
rear suspension components
are mounted on a suspension support which
is attached
to the body at four points and is fully isolated with bushings
and insulators to minimize road noise. Each rear wheel
is connected to
the suspension support through the suspension knuckle using an upper
and lower control arm and toe link.
The control arms and toe link are attached to the suspension support on
the inboard side, and to a suspension knuckle on the outboard side. The
hub and bearing assembly is mounted to the knuckle and is a single,
non-serviceable unit which eliminates the need for wheel bearing
adjustment. The load leveling (ELC) shock absorbers are attached to the
lower control arm, with the upper end
of the shock attached to the
suspension support. The springs are held in position between the lower
control
arms and a pocket in the suspension support.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The suspension system also incorporates a new damping system known as
Road Sensing Suspension. This system control the damping forces in the
shock absorbers and struts,
in response to various road and driving
conditions. The systems are capable of making these damping changes
extremely fast.
A computer receives inputs from vertical acceleration sensors, wheel to
body position sensors, vehicle speed sensor,
lift and dive signals. This
computer evaluates the inputs from these sensors,
to control the damping
of each of the struts and shocks independently
to provide varied levels of
suspension control.
The system also has the capability of providing Speed Sensitive Ste\
ering
control. This system changes your steering effort based
on your vehicle speed.
This system varies the amount of steering effort proportionate to your
vehicle speed. Steering
is easier at a lower speed for increased
maneuverability and parking ease.
As your vehicle speed increases, the
steering effort
is also increased to provide a manual like steering feel for
maximum control and enhanced vehicle stability.
