I downloaded the owners manual and found this;.. Anti-Lock Brake System Active Light (Option) LOW TRAC When your anti-lock system is adjusting brake pressure to help avoid a braking skid, the anti-lock brake system active light will come on. Slippery road conditions may exist if this light comes on, so adjust your driving accordingly. The light will stay on for a few seconds after the system stops adjusting brake pressure.
