Brake System
Inspection
WHAT SHOULD BE DONE
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding,
leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface condition.
Also inspect drum brake linings for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including
drums, wheel cylinders, calipers, parking brake, etc. Check parking brake adjustment. You
may need to have your brakes inspected more often if your driving habits or conditions
result in frequent braking.
NOTE:
A low brake fluid level can indicate worn disc brake pads which may need to be
serviced. Also, if the brake system warning light stays on or comes on, something may be
wrong with the brake system. See "Brake System Warning Light" in the Index.
