Traction Control System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The traction control system aids in the prevention of excessive wheel spin allowing the vehicle to maintain traction during acceleration. This is accomplished by the ABS module and the HCU modulating brake fluid pressure to the affected brake caliper(s) and by the PCM modulating engine torque.
