Driving your vehicle
Disc brakes wear indicator
✽ NOTICE
(Continued)
Your vehicle has disc brakes.
•
Wet brakes may result in the
vehicle not slowing down at
the usual rate and pulling to
one side when the brakes are
applied. After going through
water, apply the brakes lightly
to regainsmooth braking per-
formance.
To avoid costly brake repairs, do not
continue to drive with worn brake
pads.
When your brake pads are worn and
it's time for new pads, you will hear a
high-pitched warning sound from
your front brakes or rear brakes (if
equipped). You may hear this sound
come and go or it may occur when-
ever you depress the brake pedal.
Please remember that some dri-
ving conditions or climates may
cause a brake squeal when you
first apply (or lightly apply) the
brakes. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem with your
brakes.
