INDICATORS
Your vehicle has front disc brakes.
When your front brake pads are worn
and it’s time for new pads, you will hear
a high-pitched warning sound from your
front brakes. You may hear this sound
intermittently or constantly.

Wet brakes may result in the
vehicle not slowing down at
the usual rate and/or
pulling to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will

Always test your brakes in
this fashion after driving
