A vehicle wheel force control system includes multiple vehicle wheel height sensors, a vehicle IMU configured to measure lateral and longitudinal acceleration, and a vehicle control module is configured to obtain vehicle wheel height parameters from the multiple vehicle wheel height sensors, obtain a vehicle lateral and longitudinal acceleration parameters from the vehicle IMU, estimate a pitch arm rotation value of the vehicle, determine a pitch center of the vehicle based on the pitch arm rotation value, the vehicle wheel height parameters and the vehicle lateral acceleration parameter and the vehicle longitudinal acceleration parameter, calculate a center of gravity of the vehicle according to the determined pitch center, determine an estimated normal force on at least one wheel of the vehicle based, at least in part, on the calculated center of gravity of the vehicle, and control operation of at least one vehicle component according to the estimated normal force.

A fault remediation system for a vehicle includes one or more controllers in electronic communication with one or more consumed interfaces and one or more provided interfaces. The one or more controllers execute instructions to receive, from the one or more consumed interfaces, a consumed signal and perform fault detection upon the consumed signal to determine the presence of an active fault within the consumed signal. In response to detecting an active fault with the consumed signal, the one or more controllers select a remediation state from a group of two or more prospective remediation states based on a significance analysis of the consumed signal. The one or more controllers evaluate a relevant subfunction that corresponds to the consumed signal that the remediation state addresses for the presence of remediation tolerance and generates arbitration instructions based on the remediation tolerance.
