If
the light and chime come on while you
are
driving,
pull
off
the road and stop carefully. You may notice that
the pedal is harder to push. Or, the pedal may go closer
to the floor. It may take longer to stop. If the light
is
still
on, have the vehicle towed for service. (See “Towing
Your Vehicle” in the Index.)

Your brake system may not be working properly
if the brake warning light is on. Driving with the
brake warning light on can lead to an accident.
If
the light is still
on
after you’ve pulled
off
the road
and stopped carefully, have the vehicle towed
for service.
Parking Brake Indicator Light
PARK
When the ignition is on, this
light will come on when
you set your parking brake.
The light will stay on
if
your parking brake doesn’t
release fully.
If
you
try
to
drive off with the parking
brake set, a chime will also
come on until you release
the parking brake.
This light should also come on when you turn the
ignition key to START.
If
it doesn’t come on then, have
it fixed
so
it will be ready to remind you
if
the parking
brake hasn’t released fully.
