Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear or uneven

other objects lodged in the tread. Inspect for tread
cuts or side wall cracks. Check wheel nuts for

rior lights while you work the controls. Check turn
signal and high beam indicator lights on the
instrument panel.

Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or fuel, power
steering fluid or brake fluid leaks are suspected,
the cause should be located and corrected imme-
diately.
