However, if the brake pedal does not
f eel normal, you should take
immediate action. A problem in one
part of the system’s dual circuit
design will still give you braking at
two wheels. You will f eel the brake
pedal go down much f arther bef ore
the vehicle begins to slow down, and
you will have to press harder on the
pedal.Slow down by shif ting to a lower
gear, and pull to the side of the road
when it is saf e. Because of the long
distance needed to stop, it is
hazardous to drive the vehicle. You
should have it towed and repaired as
soon as possible (see
on page ).
If you must drive the vehicle a short
distance in this condition, drive
slowly and caref ully.
If this indicator comes on
while driving, the brake
f luid level is probably low in the
reservoir. Press lightly on the brake
pedal to see if it f eels normal. If it
does, check the brake f luid level the
next time you stop at a service
station (see page ). If the f luid
level is low, take the vehicle to your
dealer and have the brake system
inspected f or leaks or worn brake
pads. 237
