Maintenance
While operating your vehicle:
Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice if there is any increased
steering effort or looseness in the
steering wheel, or change in its
straight-ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
slightly or "pulls" to one side when
traveling on smooth, level road.
When stopping, listen and check for
unusual sounds, pulling to one side,
increased brake pedal travel or "hard-
to-push" brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the
operation of your reduction gear
occurs, check the reduction gear fluid
level.
Check the reduction gear P (Park)
function.
Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:
Check coolant level in the coolant
reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flashers.
Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare for tires that
are worn, show uneven wear, or are
damaged.
Do not add regular green coolant.
