Throttle System Inspection
Inspect the throttle system for interference or binding,
and for damaged or missing parts. Replace parts
as needed. Replace any components that have high
effort or excessive wear. Do not lubricate accelerator
and cruise control cables.
Transfer Case (Power Transfer Unit)
and Carrier Assembly-Differential
(Rear Drive Module) All-Wheel Drive
Inspection
Every 12 months or at engine oil change intervals,
check rear differential and transfer case and add
lubricant when necessary. A fluid loss could indicate a
problem; check and have it repaired, if needed.
Check vent hoses at transfer case and differential for
kinks and proper installation.
Brake System Inspection
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and
hoses for proper hook-up, 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.
