Zusammenfassung:	A number of illustrative variations may include a system and method of using vehicle brakes to steer a vehicle where steer-by-wire steering systems have failed. The system may include supplying varying brake pressure, as needed, to different vehicle wheels to steer the vehicle. The system may include supplying engine system commands to maintain vehicle speed or acceleration such that in the event of steering system failure, a vehicle may continue to operate safely without effecting driver input.
