cracking in the rubber, areas that are
getting hard, or if they leave streaks
and unwiped areas when used.
If you remove the f loor mats, make
sure to re-anchor them when you put
them back in your vehicle.

mats on top of an anchored mat.
Make sure the right-rear f loor mat is
properly hooked to the f loor mat
anchor. Your vehicle is equipped
with f ront passenger’s seat weight
sensors. If the right-rear passenger’s
f loor mat is on the seat rail of the

will detect the decreased weight on
the seat and they may not work
properly. Have your dealer replace the filter
when this service is indicated by a
maintenance message on the
