Selectable drive modes change various electronic and mechanical settings within your vehicle to tailor its performance and driving characteristics to on-road or off-road driving conditions. Steering feel and effort, traction control, stability control, chassis controls, powertrain response, transmissions shift points, four-wheel driveline setting, exhaust noise level and suspension dampening are automatically altered to a pre-determined setting depending upon the drive mode that is selected.
Note:   Your vehicle has diagnostic checks that continuously monitor all systems for proper operation. If a drive mode is unavailable due to a system fault, your vehicle defaults to normal mode and the driveline remains in the four-wheel drive setting that was last selected prior to the system fault.
Note:   Your vehicle reverts to normal mode each time it is started. If you shut your vehicle off in a drive mode other than normal mode, at startup the instrument cluster screen displays a pop-up asking if you would like to return to your last used drive mode. If you select yes to the pop-up, your vehicle returns to the last selected drive mode and the default four-wheel driveline setting associated with that drive mode. If you select no, your vehicle remains in normal mode and the default four-wheel driveline setting associated with that drive mode. If you do not select yes or no the pop up message times out, your vehicle remains in normal mode, and the four-wheel driveline setting remains in its last used setting.
