Test Your Knowledge on Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) and Electronic Trailer Swa...

• Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) is designed to control individual wheel slip to correct potential trailer swing before there is an accident.
• It is also known as Electronic Trailer Sway Control.
• TSA is programmed differently than Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
• It is designed to detect yaw in the tow-vehicle and take specific corrective actions to eliminate trailer sway.
• Most ESC systems are not designed to detect such movement nor take the correct actions to control both trailer and tow-vehicle.
• TSA systems detect when a trailer is starting to oscillate while under tow and corrects any dangerous trailer swing.
• This is done through a combination of either torque reduction and/or individual wheel braking to bring the trailer and tow-vehicle back under control.
• Regaining stability while towing heavy trailers requires focused attention by the driver without the help of electronics.
• TSA is particularly useful when towing heavy trailers such as travel trailers.
• The system helps to prevent accidents and keep the trailer and tow-vehicle stable during travel.
