Accident Avoidance

During extreme steering manoeuvres the Electronic Stability Control^[1] (ESC) system helps maintain control by sensing when the vehicle is starting to over- or understeer.

ESC automatically applies individual brakes or controls the throttle to help you stay safely on course. When you don’t want the extra hand, ESC is specially tuned for performance handling so you can switch it off.

Grand Cherokee’s four-wheel disc Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Brake Assist and All-speed Traction Control helps prevent wheel lockup for improved steering under extreme braking and slippery conditions. The system also aids in off-road driving when in four-wheel-drive 4LO mode.

Anticipating the need for additional traction, all of Grand Cherokee’s four-wheel drive systems automatically respond to wheel slippage and improve vehicle stability.
