Hyundai Elantra: Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
.png)
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system helps to stabilize the vehicle
during cornering maneuvers. ESC checks
where you are steering and where the
vehicle is actually going. ESC applies
braking pressure to any one of the

engine management system to assist the
driver with keeping the vehicle on the
intended path. It is not a substitute for

Excessive speed in turns, abrupt
