Brake Wear

This vehicle has front disc brakes and could have rear

drum brakes or rear disc brakes.

Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that make a

high-pitched warning sound when the brake pads are

worn and new pads are needed. The sound can come

and go or be heard all the time the vehicle is moving,

except when applying the brake pedal ﬁrmly.

{ CAUTION:

The brake wear warning sound means that soon

the brakes will not work well. That could lead to an

accident. When the brake wear warning sound is

heard, have the vehicle serviced.

Notice: Continuing to drive with worn-out brake

pads could result in costly brake repair.

Some driving conditions or climates can cause a brake

squeal when the brakes are ﬁrst applied or lightly applied.

This does not mean something is wrong with the brakes.

Properly torqued wheel nuts are necessary to help

prevent brake pulsation. When tires are rotated, inspect

brake pads for wear and evenly tighten wheel nuts in the

proper sequence to torque speciﬁcations in Capacities

and Speciﬁcations on page 5-129.

If the vehicle has rear drum brakes, they do not have

wear indicators, but if a rear brake rubbing noise is heard,

have the rear brake linings inspected immediately. Rear

brake drums should be removed and inspected each time

the tires are removed for rotation or changing. Drum

brakes have an inspection hole to inspect lining wear

during scheduled maintenance. When the front brake

pads are replaced, have the rear brakes inspected, too.

Brake linings should always be replaced as complete

axle sets.

Brake Pedal Travel

See your dealer/retailer if the brake pedal does not

return to normal height, or if there is a rapid increase in

pedal travel. This could be a sign that brake service

might be required.

Brake Adjustment

Every brake stop, the brakes adjust for wear.
