Recommended tire inflation pressure

Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire and
Loading Information placard located on
the driver’s door B-pillar (

page 326).

The tire inflation pressure should be
checked regularly and should only be ad-
justed on cold tires. The tires can be con-
sidered cold if the vehicle has been parked
for at least three hours or driven less than
one mile (1.6 km).

Follow recommended cold tire inflation
pressures listed on placard.

Keeping the tires properly inflated
provides the best handling, tread life and
riding comfort.

In addition to the tire placard on the
driver’s door B-pillar, also consult the fuel
filler flap for any additional information
pertaining to special driving situations. For
more information, see “Important notes on
tire inflation pressure” (

page 332).

Placard

1 Tire and Loading Information placard

with recommended cold tire inflation
pressures

The placard lists the recommended cold
tire inflation pressures for maximum load-
ed vehicle weight. The tire inflation pres-
sures listed apply to the tires installed as
original equipment.

Warning!

G

Follow recommended tire inflation

pressures.

Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires

wear excessively and/or unevenly,

adversely affect handling and fuel economy,

and are more likely to fail from being over-

heated.

Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated tires

can adversely affect handling and ride

comfort, wear unevenly, increase stopping

distance, and result in sudden deflation

(blowout) because they are more likely to

become punctured or damaged by road

debris, potholes etc.
