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.

If the vehicle has antilock brakes,
this light should come on when the
key is turned to START. If it does
not come on, have it fixed so it
will be ready to warn if there is a
problem. When the ignition is on, the brake
system warning light also comes on
when parking brake is set. The light
stays on if the parking brake does
not fully release. If it stays on after
the parking brake is fully released,
it means the vehicle has a brake
problem.
If, while driving, the light comes on
and a brake message comes on
the Driver Information Center (DIC),
pull off the road and stop carefully.
The pedal could be harder to push
or the pedal can go closer to the
floor. It could take longer to stop.
If the light is still on, have the
vehicle towed for service. See
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light
on page 4‑24and
Towing the Vehicle on page 9‑90.

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.
The Brake message remains on
until the menu button is pressed.
