INSPECTING THE TIRE FOR
WEAR
When the tread is worn down toone sixteenth of an inch (2 mm),tires must be replaced to helpprevent your vehicle from skiddingand hydroplaning. Built-intreadwear indicators, or wear bars,which look like narrow strips ofsmooth rubber across the treadwill appear on the tire when thetread is worn down to onesixteenth of an inch (2 mm).
When the tire tread wears downto the same height as these wearbars, the tire is worn out and mustbe replaced.
The tires should also be balancedperiodically. An unbalanced tireand wheel assembly may result inirregular tire wear.
Periodically inspect the tire treadsfor uneven or excessive wear andremove objects such as stones,nails or glass that may be wedgedin the tread grooves.
INSPECTING THE TIRE FOR
DAMAGE
Inspect the tire sidewalls forcracking, cuts, bruises and othersigns of damage or excessivewear. If internal damage to the tireis suspected, have the tiredismounted and inspected in caseit needs to be repaired or replaced.For your safety, tires that aredamaged or show signs ofexcessive wear should not be usedbecause they are more likely toblow out or fail.
Periodically inspect the tire treadsand sidewalls for damage, suchas bulges in the tread or sidewalls,cracks in the tread groove andseparation in the tread or sidewall.If damage is observed orsuspected, have the tire inspectedby a tire professional.
Safety Practices
WARNING: If your vehicleis stuck in snow, mud or sand, donot rapidly spin the tires;spinning the tires can tear thetire and cause an explosion. Atire can explode in as little as
three to five seconds.
WARNING: Do not spin thewheels at over 34 mph(55 km/h). The tires may fail andinjure a passenger or bystander.

Highway Hazards
No matter how carefully you drive,there is always the possibility thatyou could eventually have a flattire on the highway. Drive slowlyto the closest safe area out oftraffic. This could further damagethe flat tire, but your safety ismore important.
If you feel a sudden vibration orride disturbance while driving, oryou suspect your tire or vehiclehas been damaged, immediatelyreduce your speed. Drive withcaution until you can safely pulloff the road. Stop and inspect thetires for damage. If a tire isunder-inflated or damaged,deflate it, remove the wheel andreplace it with your spare tire andwheel. If you cannot detect acause, have the vehicle towed tothe nearest repair facility or tiredealer to have the vehicleinspected.
Tire and Wheel Alignment
A bad jolt from hitting a curb orpothole can cause the front endof your vehicle to becomemisaligned or cause damage toyour tires. If your vehicle seems topull to one side when you aredriving, the wheels could be out ofalignment. Have an authorizeddealer check the wheel alignmentperiodically.
Wheel misalignment in the frontor the rear can cause uneven andrapid treadwear of your tires andshould be corrected by anauthorized dealer.
INSPECTING THE WHEEL
VALVE STEMS
Check the valve stems for holes,cracks, or cuts that could permitair leakage.
TIRE ROTATION
WARNING: If the tire labelshows different tire pressures forthe front and rear tires and thevehicle has a tire pressuremonitoring system, then youneed to update the settings forthe system sensors. Alwaysperform the system resetprocedure after tire rotation. Ifyou do not reset the system, itmay not provide a low tirepressure warning whennecessary.
Note:If your tires show unevenwear ask an authorized dealer tocheck for and correct any wheelmisalignment, tire imbalance ormechanical problem involvedbefore tire rotation.
Note:After having your tiresrotated, inflation pressure must bechecked and adjusted to the
vehicle requirements.

Rotating your tires at therecommended interval, asindicated in the scheduledmaintenance chapter, will helpyour tires wear more evenly,providing better tire performanceand longer tire life.
For the best tire life, a five tirerotation is recommended thatincludes the matching spare tiremounted on the back of thevehicle. This rotation requires aforced re-learning of your tirepressure monitor system sensorsby your vehicle, and should beperformed by an authorized dealeror a service center to ensure thetire pressure monitor system willprovide proper warning at alltimes. When performing the tirerotation yourself, a four tirerotation is recommended, withoutusing the spare tire in the rotation,so that no tire pressure monitorsystem sensor re-learn is required.If a five tire rotation is performedwithout a tire pressure monitorsystem sensor re-learn, thesystem may not provide a low tirepressure warning when necessary.
Keep in mind that a spare tire thatis not used in the tire rotationshould only be used temporarilyin the event of a flat tire, not as apermanent replacement. Thespare tire should always bereplaced if it exceeds 6 years ofage, regardless of whether it ispart of the tire rotation.
Rear-wheel drive vehicles andfour-wheel drive vehicles with fourtire rotation, front tires at left ofdiagram.
Sometimes irregular tire wear canbe corrected by rotating the tires.

WHAT IS THE TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM
The tire pressure monitoringsystem measures the vehicle'stire pressures. A warning lampilluminates if one or more tires aresignificantly underinflated or if there is asystem malfunction.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
WARNING: If the tire pressuremonitor sensor becomes damaged itmay not function.
WARNING: Under-inflation is themost common cause of tire failures andmay result in severe tire cracking, treadseparation or blowout, with unexpectedloss of vehicle control and increased riskof injury. Under-inflation increasessidewall flexing and rolling resistance,resulting in heat buildup and internaldamage to the tire. It also may result inunnecessary tire stress, irregular wear,loss of vehicle control and accidents. Atire can lose up to half of its air pressureand not appear to be flat!
WARNING: To determine therequired pressure(s) for your vehicle, seethe Safety Compliance CertificationLabel (on the door hinge pillar,door-latch post or the door edge thatmeets the door-latch post, next to thedriver seat) or the Tire Label on theB-Pillar or the edge of the driver door.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),should be checked monthly when cold andinflated to the inflation pressurerecommended by the vehicle manufactureron the vehicle placard or tire inflationpressure label. (If your vehicle has tires ofa different size than the size indicated onthe vehicle placard or tire inflation pressurelabel, you should determine the proper tireinflation pressure for those tires).
As an added safety feature, your vehiclehas been equipped with a Tire PressureMonitoring System (TPMS) thatilluminates a low tire pressure telltalewhen one or more of your tires issignificantly under-inflated. Accordingly,when the low tire pressure telltaleilluminates, you should stop and checkyour tires as soon as possible, and inflatethem to the proper pressure. Driving on asignificantly under-inflated tire causes thetire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiencyand tire tread life, and may affect thevehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not asubstitute for proper tire maintenance, andit is the driver’s responsibility to maintaincorrect tire pressure, even if under-inflationhas not reached the level to triggerillumination of the TPMS low tire pressuretelltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped witha TPMS malfunction indicator to indicatewhen the system is not operating properly.The TPMS malfunction indicator iscombined with the low tire pressuretelltale. When the system detects amalfunction, the telltale will flash forapproximately one minute and then remaincontinuously illuminated. This sequencewill continue upon subsequent vehiclestart-ups as long as the malfunction exists.

When the malfunction indicator isilluminated, the system may not be ableto detect or signal low tire pressure asintended. TPMS malfunctions may occurfor a variety of reasons, including theinstallation of replacement or alternatetires or wheels on the vehicle that preventthe TPMS from functioning properly.Always check the TPMS malfunctiontelltale after replacing one or more tires orwheels on your vehicle to ensure that thereplacement or alternate tires and wheelsallow the TPMS to continue to functionproperly.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The tire pressuremonitoring system is not a substitute formanually checking tire pressures. Youshould periodically check tire pressuresusing a pressure gauge. Failure tocorrectly maintain tire pressures couldincrease the risk of tire failure, loss ofcontrol, vehicle rollover and personalinjury.
WARNING: Do not use the tirepressure displayed in the informationdisplay as a tire pressure gauge. Failureto follow this instruction could result inpersonal injury or death.
Note:The use of tire sealants can damagethe tire pressure monitoring system.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
When the outside temperature dropssignificantly, the tire pressure coulddecrease and activate the low tire pressurewarning lamp.
The warning lamp could also illuminatewhen you use a spare wheel, or tire sealantfrom the inflator kit.
Note:Regularly checking the vehicle tirepressures can reduce the possibility for thewarning lamp to illuminate due to outsideair temperature changes.
Note:After you inflate the tires to therecommended pressure it could take up totwo minutes of driving over 20 mph(32 km/h) for the warning indicator to turnoff.
