BRAKE SYSTEM

Your vehicle is equipped with power assisted
brakes as standard equipment. In the event power
assist is lost for any reason (for example, repeated
brake applications with the engine off), the brakes
will still function. However, the effort required to
brake the vehicle will be much greater than that
required with the power system operating.
If either of the two hydraulic systems lose normal
capability, the remaining system will still function
with some loss of overall braking effectiveness.
This will be evident by increased pedal travel
during application and greater pedal force
required to slow or stop. In addition, if the
malfunction is caused by an internal leak, as the
brake fluid in the master cylinder drops, the Brake
Warning Light will illuminate.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the Brake Warning Light on
is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking
performance or vehicle stability during braking
may occur. It will take you longer to stop the
vehicle or will make your vehicle harder to
control. You could have a collision. Have the
vehicle checked immediately.

WHEEL AND TIRE TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very important to
ensure that the wheel is properly mounted to the
vehicle. Any time a wheel has been removed and
reinstalled on the vehicle, the lug nuts/bolts
should be torqued using a properly calibrated
torque wrench using a six-sided (hex) deep wall
socket.
