I have an 08 and it doesn't turn off holding the traction button, but that is apparently the way to do it.

Why do you want to turn it off? Are you getting the stabilitrak warning? Mines been doing that, makes the car stop accelerating and it is awful. Pretty sure it is caused by a loose hub bearing. Just had one of mine replaced and it is still happening. Gonna have to see if there is another loose one.
