Brake Wear

If you have four-wheel drive, your vehicle has four-wheel

disc brakes. If not, your vehicle has front disc brakes

and rear drum 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

may come and go or be heard all the time your vehicle

is moving, except when you are pushing on the

brake pedal ﬁrmly.

{CAUTION:

The brake wear warning sound means that

soon your brakes will not work well. That

could lead to an accident. When you hear the

brake wear warning sound, have your vehicle

serviced.

Notice: Continuing to drive with worn-out brake

pads could result in costly brake repair.

Some driving conditions or climates may cause a brake

squeal when the brakes are ﬁrst applied or lightly

applied. This does not mean something is wrong with

your 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 GM torque speciﬁcations.

If you have rear drum brakes, they do not have wear

indicators, but if you ever hear a rear brake rubbing

noise, have the rear brake linings inspected immediately.

Also, the rear brake drums should be removed and

inspected each time the tires are removed for rotation or

changing. When you have the front brake pads

replaced, have the rear brakes inspected, too.

Brake linings should always be replaced as complete

axle sets.

See Brake System Inspection on page 6-31.

Brake Pedal Travel

See your dealer 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 of brake trouble.

Brake Adjustment

Every time you make a brake stop, your disc brakes

adjust for wear.

If you do not have four-wheel drive and your brake

pedal goes down farther than normal, your rear drum

brakes may need adjustment. Adjust them by backing up

and ﬁrmly applying the brakes a few times.
