Ride Mode Controls (if equipped)
If equipped, Ride Mode controls can be found on the right-hand side of the steering wheel. There are 4 available modes to select from: Baja, Rock, Track, and Comfort. The UP and DOWN arrow buttons are used to cycle through the different modes.
The momentary MAX FIRM button is on the right. When this button is pressed, the suspension will immediately switch to maximum compression damping. The vehicle will maintain this setting if the button is continuously pressed. Once the button is released, maximum compression damping will persist temporarily, and then revert back to the previous setting.
There are four Ride Modes with pre-defined suspension and steering settings to tailor the ride and handling to known uses and conditions. The Ride Modes are summarized below.
