Tires

Your new vehicle comes with
high-quality tires made by a
leading tire manufacturer. If you
ever have questions about your
tire warranty and where to obtain
service, see your vehicle
Warranty booklet for details. For
additional information refer to the
tire manufacturer.

CAUTION

Poorly maintained and
improperly used tires are
dangerous.

Overloading your tires can
cause overheating as a
result of too much flexing.
You could have an air-out
and a serious accident.
See Loading the Vehicle
on page 4-28.

Underinflated tires pose
the same danger as
overloaded tires. The
resulting accident could
cause serious injury.
Check all tires frequently to
maintain the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure
should be checked when
your tires are cold. See
Inflation - Tire Pressure on
page 5-49
.

CAUTION

(Continued)

Overinflated tires are more
likely to be cut, punctured,
or broken by a sudden
impact — such as when
you hit a pothole. Keep
tires at the recommended
pressure.

Worn, old tires can cause
accidents. If your tread is
badly worn, or if your tires
have been damaged,
replace them.

See High-Speed Operation on
page 5-50
for inflation pressure
adjustment for high speed
driving.
