GRILL SHUTTER CONTROL FOR BRAKE COOLING

A vehicle control system for a vehicle may include a brake assembly for applying negative torque to one or more wheels of the vehicle, a grill shutter assembly that directs airflow over the brake assembly when opened, and prevents airflow toward the brake assembly when closed, and a controller that calculates a target brake temperature, the controller being operably coupled to the grill shutter assembly to control positioning of the grill shutter assembly based on a comparison between a current brake temperature to the target brake temperature.
