Enhanced Torque VectoringControl
Enhanced torque vectoring control iscomprised of two elements:
•Torque vectoring control, which appliesbrake torque on the inner wheel in acurve for better traction and lessundersteer.
•Cornering understeer control whichcontrols the yaw response of thevehicle under braking and accelerationon high and low friction surfaces.
Unlike electronic stability control,enhanced torque vectoring control doesnot slow the vehicle. It helps controlexcessive wheel slip and gives the vehiclecornering agility. The system only increasesperformance. Because of this, the systemdoes not disable enhanced torquevectoring control when the AdvanceTrac®system is off.

Your ST vehicle is equipped with unique wheels matched to the tires. These wheels aremore susceptible to damage due to their diameter, width and low profile tires. To avoiddamage to your wheels:
•Maintain proper tire pressure.
•Exercise caution when using automated, commercial car washes. Hand washing orusing touchless commercial car washes without mechanical tracks is the best wayto avoid potential damage.
•When installing wheels, always torque lug nuts to specification with a torque wrench.
•Inspect your wheels for damage on a regular basis. If a wheel is damaged, replace itimmediately.
•If you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect the outer diameter of yourwheels, both inside and out, for damage.
