Pushing START In Motion - Push To Stop Emergency

Just for emergency purposes, how does the Push Button stop work while in motion. I haven't test but very tempted so I know what to expect if I need to use it. When your driving and push the Start button, the dash says push again "the vehicle will do and emergency stop". Does it cause the truck to brake automatically? Any input? Just want to know encase for some reason I'm 4 wheelin and get the gas pedal stuck in the floor matte or while I'm driving and brakes or accelerator fail for some reason.

 

With an empty parking lot you shall know...

 

if you push the button while driving nothing will happen, a warning message will just appear, i have done it thinking i was pushing the ECT button while keeping my eyes on the road. i have read if you push and hold down the button after 15 or 20 seconds it will kill the engine.

 

sub'd

 

What is sub'd? I see this a lot.

 

He went to subway and ordered a "sub" sandwich, therefore he deemed himself "sub'd" anywhere possible while he was still eating his sandwich.

 

He hasn't noticed the "watch thread" button at the top right.

 

If you post in a thread by default you will "watch" it and get notifications when someone posts in it. If you just press the "watch thread" button at the top then you can subscribe without having to post.

but then we won't know he was here

 

How are you a "well known member" and don't know what sub'd is? Lol it means subscribed aka (I'm watching this thread for further updates via the "watch thread" button that way I don't need to stay on this page all day and waste my life. Instead I'll get notified when a change happens and hopefully it'll be the change or post I'm hoping/looking for. I'm sorry we are just giving you crap.

 

You have to hold for a few seconds to shut it off while driving

 

Thanks bro, super helpful.

Not sure, I had the question for a while now and never asked. Thanks for the info!

 

In addition to subscribing you to notifications, posting "sub'd" or "" lets the other forum members or the OP know that you are interesting in seeing a response to the topic.

I think those titles are just new member, well-known member, and staff member. Doesn't really mean much.

Is that all it does? Shut off the engine?

 

Yes, it's a start/stop button. Tap it to start/shut off. When in gear you have to hold it and it will shut off. They make it so if you tap it while driving it won't have an effect. This way if you accidentally hit it and shit the vehicle off you would lose power steering and the airbags wouldn't deploy in an accident.

 

Ohhhh so titles don't mean much huh??? What are you un-American?

 

is that next to the ECT button?

 

Is "tub'ed" the same as "sub'd" ?

 

Sure they do, just not on an internet forum.

 

Holy hell. I HADNT NOTICED the "watch thread" button. Super inconspicuous on an iPad. Humble thanks.
