    • TRAILER SWAY DAMPING

      In any towing situation, there is always a chance of sway occurring. Standard Trailer Sway Damping is designed to determine if your trailer is swaying back and forth in a dangerous manner and helps to correct the situation.

      Trailer Sway Damping uses the Electronic Stability Control sensors to recognize when unique vehicle and / or trailer motion is occurring that isn't caused by steering input. The system then applies brake pressure on alternating wheels and may adjust the throttle to help eliminate the sway and maintain vehicle and trailer system stability.
