WARNING
The brake system might not be
working properly if the brake
system warning light is on.
Driving with the brake system
warning light on can lead to a
crash. If the light is still on after
the vehicle has been pulled off
the road and carefully stopped,
have the vehicle towed for
service.
If the light comes on while driving, a
chime sounds. Pull off the road and
stop. The pedal might be harder to
push or go closer to the floor.
It might also take longer to stop.
If the light is still on, have the
vehicle towed for service. See
Towing the Vehicle on page 10 68.

Electric Parking Brake

Light

The parking brake status light
comes on when the brake is
applied. If the light continues
flashing after the parking brake is
released, or while driving, there is a
problem with the EPB system.
A SERVICE PARKING BRAKE
message may also display in the
Driver Information Center (DIC).
See Brake System Messages on
page 5 28 for more information.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your dealer.

Instruments and Controls
The parking brake warning light
should come on briefly when ignition
is placed in ON/RUN. If it does not
come on then, have it fixed so it will
be ready to warn if there is a
problem.
If this light comes on, there is a
problem with a system on the
vehicle that is causing the EPB
system to work at a reduced level.
The vehicle can still be driven, but
should be taken to a dealer as soon
as possible. See Parking Brake on
page 9 25.
