Abstract
A vehicle is provided. The vehicle may include an engine that is configured to auto-stop and auto-start. The system may also include a controller programmed to power an electrical actuator coupled to a steering mechanism to synchronize a drive angle of the vehicle and a steering wheel angle of the vehicle, in response to a parameter indicative of a likelihood of a wheel slip event exceeding a threshold and the steering-wheel angle being greater than a predetermined threshold.
