BRAKE SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with dual hydraulic brake sys-
tems. If either of the two hydraulic systems loses normal
capability, the remaining system will still function. How-
ever, there will be some loss of overall braking effective-
ness. You may notice increased pedal travel during appli-
cation, greater pedal force required to slow or stop, and
potential activation of the “Brake System Warning Light.”
In the event power assist is lost for any reason (i.e.,
repeated brake applications with the engine off) the brakes
will still function. However, the effort required to brake the
vehicle will be much greater than that required with the
power system operating.
WHEEL AND TIRE TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very important to ensure that
the wheel is properly mounted to the vehicle. Any time a
wheel has been removed and reinstalled on the vehicle, the
lug nuts/bolts should be torqued using a properly cali-
brated torque wrench.
Torque Specifications
Lug Nut/Bolt Torque **Lug Nut/Bolt SizeLug Nut/Bolt
Socket Size
130 Ft-Lbs (176 N·m) M14 x 1.50 22 mm
**Use only your authorized dealer recommended lug nuts/
bolts and clean or remove any dirt or oil before tightening.
Inspect the wheel mounting surface prior to mounting the
tire and remove any corrosion or loose particles.
Tighten the lug nuts/bolts in a star pattern until each
nut/bolt has been tightened twice.

Chassis
ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Automatic Transmission Use only Mopar ZF 8&9 Speed ATF Automatic Transmis-
sion Fluid or equivalent. Failure to use the correct fluid
may affect the function or performance of your transmis-
sion.
Transfer Case – Single-Speed (Quadra-Trac I) We recommend you use Automatic Transmission Fluid
3353.
Transfer Case – Two-Speed (Quadra-Trac II) We recommend you use MOPAR ATF+4 Automatic Trans-
mission Fluid.
Axle Differential (Front) We recommend you use MOPAR GL-5 Synthetic Axle
Lubricant SAE 75W-85.
Axle Differential (Rear) – With Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential (ELSD) We recommend you use MOPAR GL-5 Synthetic Axle
Lubricant SAE 75W-85 with friction modifier.
Axle Differential (Rear) – Without Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential (ELSD) We recommend you use MOPAR GL-5 Synthetic Axle
Lubricant SAE 75W-85.
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use MOPAR DOT 3 Brake Fluid, SAE
J1703 should be used. If DOT 3, SAE J1703 brake fluid is not
available, then DOT 4 is acceptable.

Setting NameSelectable Options
Forward Collision
Warning-Plus (FCW+) Ac- tive Braking — IfEquipped Off
On
NOTE:
The “Forward Collision Warning Plus (FCW+)” setting includes Advanced Brake Assist (ABA). The ABA applies ad-
ditional brake pressure when the driver requests insufficient brake pressure to avoid a potential frontal collision. ParkSense — If Equipped OffSound Only Sound and Display
NOTE:
The “ParkSense” system setting will scan for objects behind the vehicle when the transmission gear selector is in RE-
VERSE and the vehicle speed is less than 7 mph (11 km/h), when enabled. It will provide an alert (audible and/or
visual) to indicate the proximity to other objects. The system can be enabled with “Sound Only,” or “Sound and Dis-
play.” Front ParkSense Volume LowMedium High
Rear ParkSense Volume LowMedium High
Rear ParkSense Braking Assist — If Equipped
NOTE:
When the “Rear ParkSense Braking Assist” feature is selected, the park assist system will detect objects located be-
hind the vehicle and utilize autonomous braking to stop the vehicle.

Setting NameSelectable Options
Forward Collision Warn- ing Sensitivity — If Equipped Far
Med Near
NOTE:
The “Forward Collision Warning Plus (FCW+) Sensitivity” setting determines at what relative distance the vehicle
directly in front of you needs to be at, before the system will warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle directly
in front of you, based on the option is selected. “Far” will give you the most amount of reaction time, whereas
“Near” will give you the least amount of reaction time, based on the distance between the two vehicles. Forward Collision Warn-ing Active Braking — If Equipped
NOTE:
The “Forward Collision Warning Plus (FCW+)” setting includes Advanced Brake Assist (ABA). The ABA applies ad-
ditional brake pressure when the driver requests insufficient brake pressure to avoid a potential frontal collision. LaneSense Warning — If Equipped Early
Medium Late
NOTE:
The “Lane Depature Warning (LDW)” setting determines at what distance the LDW system will warn you, through
steering wheel feedback, of a possible lane departure.
