Traction Control. Traction Control systems optimise grip and stability of the car on the road during acceleration by measuring wheel rotation. It stops wheel spin by reducing engine power or temporarily applying the brakes to that wheel, allowing the car to accelerate smoothly, even on slippery surfaces. Limited slip differentials also help provide a more even distribution of traction forces when the car is on a slippery surface.
Can somebody school me on the Accord's traction control? I had trouble finding a clear answer to this in a search of the 7th Gen forum... This is the first car I've owned that has a traction control other than ABS. The 7th Gen Accord does have stability control as part of the traction control system, correct? Is the traction control only effective to prevent wheel spin on takeoff, or is it also active at highway speeds to prevent sliding? The reason I ask is that it was a point for me to get a car for my wife to drive that is safer than our old 1998 Maxima. She is a very good driver.
