Have you ever pressed that mysterious button in your car without really knowing what it’s for? If you’re like most people, you probably did it without a second thought. But what they didn’t tell you is that that button, so harmless at first glance, may be doing more damage to your car than you imagine.

In fact, pressing it at the wrong time could be a serious mistake that affects the durability of your vehicle. In this article, we’ll reveal what’s behind that button, why you might be making a mistake when using it, and what really happens when you press it carelessly.
“The button you’re pressing that could destroy your car”
Did you know that button with the skidding car logo could be causing more damage than you imagine? It’s called Traction Control (TCS) or Stability Control (ESC), a vital system for preventing skidding in slippery conditions. Disabling it at the wrong time can endanger your car and your safety.
What does Traction Control actually do?
When the wheels lose traction, the system limits engine power or applies the brakes individually to the spinning wheels. In technical terms, it modulates the distribution of engine torque to improve stability. This is especially useful on wet, icy, or snowy surfaces. The system’s intervention frequency varies between 20 and 60 times per second, adapting to the terrain conditions.

What if you turn it off?
Deactivating it eliminates power regulation and can allow the wheels to spin uncontrollably. This means your car could easily skid, losing stability in critical situations. Under normal conditions, TCS not only helps prevent skidding but also improves traction and braking safety.
When should you turn it off?
