Ever felt your car struggling for grip, especially in wet or icy conditions? That's where your traction control system (TCS) comes to the rescue! Simply put, TCS helps prevent wheel spin, ensuring you maintain control and stability.
How does it work? Using sensors, the system detects when one or more wheels are spinning faster than the others. When this happens, TCS intelligently intervenes. It can reduce engine power and/or apply brakes to the spinning wheel(s), redirecting power to the wheels with more grip.
Think of it as a safety net, working automatically in the background. While it's not a substitute for careful driving, especially in challenging weather, TCS provides an extra layer of protection, making your drive safer and more confident. So, next time you feel a slight shudder or hear a subtle clicking sound during acceleration, remember your TCS is working hard to keep you on track!
