Got a 2017 Sorento KX-4, New towbar fitted after purchase, can anyone tell me IF this model is TSA equipped? If so how is it activated? By a switch? Is it part of the ESC? Does it know you are towing because of the towing electrics? How would I know it was active, other than passing an artic at 75.... (not that I would of course)?
Never needed one before but you never know innit!
Thanks, Miles

If it has got it and you have the Kia dedicated wiring for towbar it will operate automatically when caravan plugged in. Kia models vary from country so person to ask if it has it, is main Kia dealer

If it is working you should hear it whine and self check when you plug the van into the car.

That is the caravan ATC that you hear. Not the Sorento TSA.
TSA is the way the vehicle reacts when a trailer is connected using the ESC system.
