WHAT IS THE ELECTRONIC
LIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL
The electronic limited-slip differential system
directs torque, enabling the vehicle to drive
over terrain and road conditions that a
conventional axle cannot. The system is
active at all times and requires no input from
the driver.
Note:
If your vehicle is not at optimal
operating conditions or a system fault is
present, a warning may display in the
instrument cluster. Depending on the
warning, you may need to service your
vehicle. Operating the Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential with a Spare or Mismatched
Tires
If your vehicle has an electronic limited-slip
differential, do not use a spare tire of a
different size than the tire provided. If you
have a spare tire installed, a message may
appear indicating the system has disabled
automatically or reduced function to prevent
system overheat and damage. We
recommend you reinstall the repaired or
replaced spare tire as soon as possible.
When you replace the spare tire, the system
resumes normal operation on the next key
cycle.
Trailer Towing
The electronic limited-slip differential
enhances vehicle stability during trailer tow
operation. During high demand trailering
events, such as steep slopes, high speeds
or with a spare tire, the system may provide
a warning in the instrument cluster and
reduce function or enter a temporarily
disabled state. To resume normal function,
stop the vehicle in a safe location and allow
the unit to adequately cool. Once the system
reaches normal operating temperatures,
system function restores and the electronic
limited-slip differential restored message
displays.

BRAKE PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Driving your vehicle with
the warning lamp on is dangerous. A
significant decrease in braking
performance may occur. It may take you
longer to stop your vehicle. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Driving extended distances with the
parking brake engaged can cause brake
failure and the risk of personal injury.
Wet brakes result in reduced braking
efficiency. Gently press the brake pedal a
few times when leaving a car wash or driving
from standing water to dry the brakes.
Note: Depending on applicable laws and
regulations in the country for which your
vehicle was originally built, the stoplamps
could flash during heavy braking. Following
this the hazard warning flashers could also
turn on when your vehicle comes to a stop. ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
The anti-lock braking system does not
eliminate the risk of crash when:
•
You drive too closely to the vehicle in
front of you.
• Your vehicle is hydroplaning.
• You take corners too fast.
• The road surface is poor.
Note: If the system activates, the brake
pedal could pulse and travel further.
Maintain pressure on the brake pedal.
BRAKE OVER ACCELERATOR
In the event the accelerator pedal becomes
stuck or entrapped, apply steady and firm
pressure to the brake pedal to slow the
vehicle and reduce engine power. If you
experience this condition, apply the brakes
and bring your vehicle to a safe stop. Move the transmission to park (P), switch the
engine off and apply the parking brake.
Inspect the accelerator pedal for any
interference. If none are found and the
condition persists, have your vehicle towed
to the nearest authorized dealer.
LOCATING THE BRAKE FLUID
RESERVOIR
See
Under Hood Overview (page 415).
CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID WARNING: Do not use any fluid other
than the recommended brake fluid as this
will reduce brake efficiency. Use of
incorrect fluid could result in the loss of
vehicle control, serious personal injury or
death.
233
2022 Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202109, First-Printing Brakes

WARNING: Only use brake fluid from
a sealed container. Contamination with dirt,
water, petroleum products or other
materials may result in brake system
damage or failure. Failure to adhere to this
warning could result in the loss of vehicle
control, serious personal injury or death. WARNING:
Do not allow the fluid to
touch your skin or eyes. If this happens,
rinse the affected areas immediately with
plenty of water and contact your physician. WARNING:
The brake system could
be affected if the brake fluid level is below
the
MIN mark or above the MAX mark on
the brake fluid reservoir. 1. Park your vehicle on a level surface.
2. Look at the brake fluid reservoir to see
where the brake fluid level is relative to
the
MIN and the MAX marks on the
reservoir.
Note: To avoid fluid contamination, the
reservoir cap must remain in place and fully
tight, unless you are adding fluid. Only use fluid that meets our specifications.
See
Capacities and Specifications (page
469).

Brake Fluid Specification (page 476).
BRAKES – TROUBLESHOOTING
BRAKES – WARNING LAMPS If the ABS indicator illuminates
when you are driving, this indicates
a malfunction. Your vehicle
continues to have normal braking without
the anti-lock braking system function. See
an authorized dealer.
It also momentarily illuminates when you
switch the ignition on to confirm the lamp is
functional. If it does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, or begins to flash at
any time, have the system checked by an
authorized dealer.
234
2022 Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202109, First-Printing BrakesE170684

The brake indicator momentarily
illuminates when you switch the
ignition on to confirm the lamp is
functional. It may also illuminate when you
apply the parking brake and the ignition is
on. If it illuminates when your vehicle is
moving, make sure the parking brake is
disengaged. If the parking brake is
disengaged, this indicates low brake fluid
level or a brake system fault. See an
authorized dealer.
BRAKES – FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
Is it normal for my brakes to make noise?
Occasional brake noise is normal. If a
metal-to-metal, continuous grinding, or
continuous squeal sound is present, the
brake lining could be worn-out. Have
the system checked by an authorized
dealer. There is an electrical motor sound when I
press on the brake pedal or activate the
park brake switch. Is this normal?
Yes, those sounds are the electronic
brake booster or the electronic park
brake operating.
Note: Brake dust could accumulate on the
wheels, even under normal driving
conditions. Some dust is normal as the
brakes wear and does not contribute to
brake noise. See Cleaning Wheels (page
431).
