Brake System Warning
Light
The vehicle brake system consists
of two hydraulic circuits. If one
circuit is not working, the remaining
circuit can still work to stop the
vehicle. For normal braking
performance, both circuits
need to be working.
If the warning light comes on, there
is a brake problem. Have the brake
system inspected right away.
English Metric
The Brake System Warning Light
should come on briefly as the
engine is started. If it does not come
on, have the vehicle serviced by
your dealer.
{
WARNING
The brake system might not be
working properly if the brake
system warning light is on.
Driving with the brake system
warning light on can lead to a
crash. If the light is still on after
the vehicle has been pulled off
the road and carefully stopped,
have the vehicle towed for
service.
If the light comes on while driving,
a chime sounds. Pull off the road
and stop. The pedal might be harder
to push or go closer to the floor.
It might also take longer to stop.
If the light is still on, have the
vehicle towed for service. See
Towing the Vehicle on page 10‑74.
Electric Parking Brake
Light
English Metric
The parking brake status light
comes on when the brake is
applied. If the light continues
flashing after the parking brake
is released, or while driving,
there is a problem with the Electric
Parking Brake system. A SERVICE
PARKING BRAKE message
may also display on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See Brake
System Messages on page 5‑26 for
more information.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your dealer.
