Caution
.Do not use washer fluid that
contains any type of water

the wiper blades to chatter
or skip.
.Do not use engine coolant
(antifreeze) in the windshield
washer. It can damage the
windshield washer system and
paint.

Brakes
Disc brake linings, except J57 V-Series
Blackwing with carbon ceramic brakes,
have built-in wear indicators that
make a high-pitched warning sound
when the brake linings are worn and
new linings are needed. The sound
can come and go or can be heard all
the time when the vehicle is moving,
except when applying the brake pedal
firmly. The V-Series Blackwing has
electronic pad wear sensors. See Brake
Pad Life System (If Equipped) 0346
{Warning
The brake wear warning sound
means that soon the brakes will not
work well. That could lead to a
crash. When the brake wear
warning sound is heard, have the
vehicle serviced.
Caution
Continuing to drive with worn-out
brake linings could result in costly
brake repairs.
Properly torqued wheel nuts are
necessary to help prevent brake
pulsation. When tires are rotated,
inspect brake linings for wear and
evenly tighten wheel nuts in the
proper sequence to torque
specifications. See Capacities and
Specifications 0424.
Brake linings should be replaced as
complete axle sets.

can cause a brake squeal when the
brakes are first applied, clearing up

not mean something is wrong with
the brakes.
Vehicles equipped with high
performance brake systems provide
superior fade resistance, but will
produce increased brake squeal and
