Selective Ride Control
The vehicle may have a ride control system called Selective Ride Control. The setting can be changed at any time. Based on road conditions, steering wheel angle, and the vehicle speed, the system automatically adjusts to provide the best handling while providing a smooth ride. The Tour and Sport modes will feel similar on a smooth road.
To switch from TOUR to SPORT mode, move the shift lever to the left while the transmission is in D (Drive).
TOUR: Use for normal city and highway driving. This setting provides a smooth, soft ride.
SPORT: Use where road conditions or personal preference demand more control. This setting provides more “feel,” or response to road conditions through increased steering effort and suspension control. Transmission shift points and shift firmness are also enhanced. See Manual Mode under Automatic Transmission.
If there is a problem detected with Selective Ride Control, SERVICE SUSPENSION SYSTEM displays on the Driver Information Center (DIC). See Ride Control System Messages. Driving should be adjusted accordingly.
