Hey Amanda, the Tow-Pro Link # RED57AR includes SwayStop Plus, which lets you manually activate the trailer brakes using the remote or app if sway starts. When pressed, it applies trailer braking independently of your vehicle brakes to help straighten things out. It's actually a really cool and smart feature; even after you let go of the sway button, it will still apply brakes to help straighten the trailer out afterwards.

In proportional mode, it applies light braking automatically; then in off-road mode, it applies braking based on the level you’ve set. It’s designed to help you regain control quickly without panic braking.

What kind of trailer are you towing, and have you experienced sway before at certain speeds or in wind? That info can help dial things in.
