During extreme steering maneuvers the Electronic Stability Program[1] (ESP) system helps maintain control by sensing when the vehicle is starting to over- or understeer.
ESP automatically applies individual brakes or controls the throttle to help you stay safely on course. When you don’t want the extra hand, ESP is specially tuned for performance handling so you can switch it off.
Not all roads are paved or smooth. Liberty's four-wheel Antilock Brake System (ABS) has a unique rough road detection system that has a special program to assist Liberty's stopping performance on gravel or dirt roads.
Drive with confidence. Liberty's all-speed traction control system uses sensors to monitor wheel spin, reducing engine speed, applying the brakes to spinning wheels, and transferring torque to the appropriate wheel when slippage is detected.
In a panic brake condition, Liberty's brake assist system applies maximum braking power, providing the shortest possible stopping distance.
Anticipating the need for additional traction, either of Liberty's four-wheel drive systems automatically responds to wheel slippage by transferring power equally to both the front and rear wheels, improving vehicle stability.

- Hill Descent Control & Hill Start Assist
The road can be a threatening place - but with Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist, Liberty has the agility to help you navigate the trickiest of obstacles.
Hill Descent Control with grade sensing allows a smooth and controlled hill descent on rough or slippery terrain without the driver needing to touch the brake pedal. This system applies the brakes to each wheel individually when needed to reduce forward motion while negotiating down steep grades.
Hill Start Assist (HAS) assists drivers when starting a vehicle from a stop on a hill by maintaining the level of brake pressure applied for a short period after the driver's foot is removed from the brake pedal. If throttle is not applied within a short period after the driver's foot is removed from the brake pedal, brake pressure will be released.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems
Both of Liberty's Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems regularly check inflation levels for optimal safety, security, performance and fuel economy. If the levels are off, a warning light will illuminate on the instrument panel.
According to fueleconomy.gov, you can improve your gas mileage by around 3.3% by keeping your tires inflated to the proper pressure (that’s up to 11 cents / gallon savings!). Proper inflation also benefits the life of your tires.
- No deductible. Not valid on 2010 models. See dealer for a copy of limited warranty and details. Non-Transferable. Not available on SRT®, Diesel vehicles and certain fleet vehicles.
