Section 3
■ STEERING
Power Steering
If you lose power steering assist
because the engine stops or the
system is malfunctioning, you can
still steer but it will take much
more effort.
■ BRAKES
If the engine stops as you're
driving, brake normally but don't
pump your brakes. If the engine
stops, you will have some power
brake assist left, but it's used up as
you brake.
The brake pedal may be harder to
push and it may take longer to
stop.
CAUTION
Using the wrong replacement
parts could be dangerous. It
could affect the braking and
handling of your vehicle. You
could lose control of the vehicle
and you or others may be
injured.
Be sure to use only new
approved replacement parts.
Disc Brake Wear Indicators
Your vehicle has disc brakes.
Disc brake pads have built-in wear
indicators that make a high-
pitched warning sound when the
brake pads are worn and new ones
are needed.
Some conditions or climates may
cause disc brakes to squeal when
they are first or lightly applied.
This does not indicate a problem
with the brakes.
Brake linings should always be
replaced as complete axle sets.
CAUTION
The brake wear warning sound
means that soon your brakes
won’t work well. That could
lead to an accident. When you
hear the brake wear warning
sound, have the vehicle
serviced.
