Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH A SINGLE DEDICATED DASH MOUNTED SWITCH FOR THE TRACTION CONTROL "OFF" FUNCTION. TO DISABLE TRACTION CONTROL IN LOW SPEED SITUATIONS REQUIRING MORE TRACTION NOW INVOLVES NAVIGATING THROUGH FOUR DASH MOUNTED INFORMATION SCREENS WHILE USING THE STEERING WHEEL MOUNTED CONTROL BUTTONS. A PROCESS THAT REQUIRES TAKING YOUR VIEW OFF THE ROAD FOR 5 SECONDS OR MORE AND IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. *TR
