Driving
Failure to maintain your vehicle properly may void the warranty, increase
your repair cost, reduce vehicle performance and operational capabilities
and adversely affect driver and passenger safety. Frequent inspection of
vehicle chassis components is recommended if the vehicle is subjected to
heavy off-road usage.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
If driving through deep or standing
water is unavoidable, proceed very
slowly especially when the depth is
not known. Never drive through
water that is higher than the bottom
of the wheel rims (for cars) or the
bottom of the hubs (for trucks) .
When driving through water, traction or brake capability may be limited.
Also, water may enter your engine’s air intake and severely damage your
engine or your vehicle may stall. Drivin g thr ou gh de ep water whe re
the transmission vent tube is su bme rged ma y allow water into the
transmission and cause internal transmission da ma ge.
Once thr ou gh the water, alwa ys dr y the br akes by movin g you r

Wet brakes do not stop the vehicle as quickly as dry brakes.
