VCFRONT_a597
Unable to drive - Service is required
Electrical system issue detected
What this alert means:
An abnormally large and sustained power draw has made your vehicle’s electrical system unable to support all features and
functions.
While this alert is present, your vehicle is unable to drive and will not restart.
Air vent positioning may be limited or unavailable. Many features and functions on the right side of your vehicle may be
unavailable, or their performance may be affected. These include:
•
Powered doors
•
Powered windows
•
Front seat (movement and heating)
•
Rear seat heaters
•
Side mirror movement
What to do:
It is recommended that you schedule service at your earliest opportunity. Without service, your vehicle will remain unable to
drive, and the electrical system will remain unable to support all features and functions.
Some or all of the powered doors and windows in your vehicle may lose electrical power. If this occurs, you can still use the
manual door releases to exit the vehicle if necessary. For more information, see Opening Doors from the Interior on page 26.
VCSEC_a221
Air pressure below recommendation for tires
Check pressure and refill air as needed
What this alert means:
This alert does NOT indicate that there is a flat tire.
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) has detected that the air pressure in one or more of your tires is at least 20%
lower than the recommended cold tire pressure.
See Maintaining Tire Pressures on page 173 for detailed information on where to find the recommended cold pressure (RCP)
for your vehicle's tires, how to check tire pressures, and how to keep your tires properly inflated.
This alert may appear in cold weather because the air in your tires naturally contracts when it becomes cold, decreasing tire
pressures.
What to do:
Add air to maintain the recommended cold tire pressure. Although drops in tire pressure are expected in colder weather, the
recommended cold tire pressure should be maintained at all times.
The alert may clear as the vehicle is driven. This is because the tires will warm up and the tire pressure will increase. Even if the
alert clears, the tires should still be refilled with air once they have cooled.
The alert will clear once the Tire Pressure Monitoring System detects that each of your tires is inflated to the recommended
cold pressure.
•
The alert and Tire Pressure indicator light may still be present immediately after you have filled your tires to the
recommended cold pressure, but both should clear once you have driven a short distance.
