Hi everyone,
I was driving my 2014 RRS SC, which has terrain response II, this weekend on the beach in deep sand. Prior to pulling into the sand, I twisted the terrain selector to sand mode, and raised the suspension setting due to the clearance needed for driving in the deep soft-sand ruts. As I was driving on the beach (in a spirited manner), a warning light appeared that the terrain response had failed! The truck lowered to its default setting and the terrain selector light automatically moved out of "sand" mode and said that traction control was unavailable. After this happened, I was unable to raise the suspension or change the terrain response setting.
After turning the car off and back on again, I was able to return to sand mode and once again raise the suspension - and the failure did not occur again (I drove more conservatively after the system failed). Has this ever happened to anyone? Is there a problem with my system, or did I do something to cause the failure? Or is this just one of those occasional quirks I should be prepared for? My Sport only has 19,000 miles on it - so I'm a little bummed/concerned.
Thanks!
