Tire Pressure Monitor
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The Tire Pressure Monitor System
alerts you when a significant
reduction in pressure occurs in one
or more of your vehicle’s tires by
illuminating the low tire pressure
warning light on the instrument
cluster. The warning light will remain
on until the tire pressure is
corrected. The proper tire pressures
for your vehicle are listed on the
Tire and Loading Information label
located on the driver side center
pillar (B pillar). SeeVehicle Load
Limits on page 9‑12.
You may notice during cooler
conditions that the low tire pressure
warning light will appear when the vehicle is first started and then turn
off as you drive. This may be an
early indicator that your tire
pressures are getting low and the
tires need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
Note:
The Tire Pressure Monitor
System can alert you about low tire
pressure, but it does not replace
normal monthly tire maintenance.
It is the driver ’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressures.

in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If the transmission is shifted out of
P (Park) and the vehicle accelerates
before the power liftgate latches
closed, the liftgate may reverse to
the open position. Cargo could fall
out of the vehicle. Always make
sure the power liftgate is closed and
latched before you drive away.
If you power open the liftgate and
the liftgate support struts have lost
pressure, the lights will flash and a
chime will sound. The liftgate will
stay open temporarily, then slowly
close. See your dealer/retailer for
service before using the liftgate if
this occurs.

A warning chime will sound and the
liftgate will automatically reverse
direction to the full closed or open
position if the liftgate encounters an

obstruction, the power liftgate
operation can be used again.
If the liftgate comes across more
obstacles on the same power cycle,
the power function deactivates, and
you must manually open or close
the liftgate. A message displays,

open position or close the liftgate to
the fully closed and latched position.
The liftgate resumes normal power
operation.
The vehicle has pinch sensors
located on the side edges of the
liftgate. If an object is caught
between the liftgate and the body
and presses against this sensor, the
liftgate will reverse direction and
open fully. The liftgate will remain
open until it is activated again or closed manually. Do not force the
liftgate open or closed during a
power cycle.
