204 Driving and Operating
used to hold the vehicle after coming to a
stop, and a noise may be noticed when the
brakes apply.
When driving on slippery roads, it is
recommended to turn off One-Pedal Driving
for maximum vehicle stability. SeeWinter
Driving 0191.
One-Pedal Driving is a useful feature when
towing a trailer, however, using the brake
pedal may be required to slow down and
hold the vehicle with large loads or steep
hills. Trailer brakes are only activated with
the brake pedal but trailer brake lights will
be functional during substantial deceleration
or when the vehicle is stopped. See Trailer
Towing 0297.
While using One-Pedal Driving, the Electric
Parking Brake (EPB) may apply in some
circumstances. This can occur when:
.The driver exits the vehicle.
.The vehicle has remained stationary for
five minutes.
To resume driving, press the accelerator
pedal, and the EPB will automatically
disengage.
Drive Systems
Four-Wheel Drive
This vehicle is equipped with advanced
electric four-wheel drive (e4WD). The e4WD
system delivers power to all four wheels,
and the system adjusts automatically to the
driving conditions. The e4WD system
continuously varies the drive power to the
front and rear wheels to maximize driving
efficiency and improve driving dynamics.
Your vehicle has exceptional driving
capability, but care must always be taken to
adjust driving style to the traffic and road
conditions.
Torque Vectoring
If equipped, the torque vectoring feature of
e4WD enhances vehicle performance by
focusing the vehicle torque to the optimal
wheel(s).
The vehicle e4WD settings may be
customized for the driver mode selected. See
Driver Mode Control 0209 for more
information.
Brakes
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) helps
prevent a braking skid and maintain steering
while braking hard.
If there is a problem with ABS, this warning
light stays on. See Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light 0116.
ABS does not change the time needed to
get a foot on the brake pedal and does not
always decrease stopping distance. If you
get too close to the vehicle ahead, there will
not be enough time to apply the brakes if
that vehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always
leave enough room ahead to stop, even
with ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Hearing and feeling ABS
operate is normal.

This vehicle is equipped with four-wheel
steering. This feature steers the vehicle with
all four wheels, which reduces the vehicle
turn diameter and improves maneuverability
of the vehicle.
At slower speeds the front and rear wheels
will turn in opposite directions. This helps
the vehicle make tighter turns, such as
during parking, cornering and turning into
tight spaces. At higher speeds the front and
rear wheels will turn in the same direction.
This improves stability of the vehicle during
lane changes and wide turns
When the vehicle is shut-off, the rear
steering angle will automatically return to
the forward position.
Four-wheel steering is not operational when
Super Cruise is active. See Super Cruise
0 227.

Vehicle Care 329
Caution
Continuing to drive with worn-out brake
linings could result in costly brake
repairs.
Some driving conditions or climates can
cause a brake squeal when the brakes are
first applied, clearing up following several
applications. This does not mean something
is wrong with the brakes.
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 0395.
Brake pads should be replaced as complete
axle sets.
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does not
return to normal height, or if there is a
rapid increase in pedal travel. This could be
a sign that brake service may be required.
Replacing Brake System Parts
Always replace brake system parts with
new, approved replacement parts. If this is
not done, the brakes may not work
properly. The braking performance can
change in many ways if the wrong brake
parts are installed or if parts are improperly
installed.
Brake Fluid
The brake master cylinder reservoir is filled
with GM approved DOT 4 brake fluid as
indicated on the reservoir cap. See
Underhood Compartment Overview 0325 for
the location of the reservoir.
Checking Brake Fluid
With the vehicle in P (Park) on a level
surface, the brake fluid level should be
between the minimum and maximum marks
on the brake fluid reservoir. There are only two reasons why the brake
fluid level in the reservoir may go down:
.Normal brake lining wear. When new
linings are installed, the fluid level goes
back up.
.A fluid leak in the brake hydraulic system.
Have the brake hydraulic system fixed.
With a leak, the brakes will not
work well.
Always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap
and the area around the cap before
removing it.
Do not top off the brake fluid. Adding fluid
does not correct a leak. If fluid is added
when the linings are worn, there will be too
much fluid when new brake linings are
installed. Add or remove fluid, as necessary,
only when work is done on the brake
hydraulic system.
When the brake fluid falls to a low level,
the brake warning light comes on. See Brake
System Warning Light 0115.
Brake fluid absorbs water over time which
degrades the effectiveness of the brake fluid.
Replace brake fluid at the specified intervals
to prevent increased stopping distance. See
Maintenance Schedule 0389.

.There is cord or fabric showing
through the tire's rubber.
.The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut,
or snagged deep enough to show
cord or fabric.
.The tire has a bump, bulge, or split.
.The tire has a puncture, cut, or other
damage that cannot be repaired well
because of the size or location of the
damage.
Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated according to the
interval listed in the maintenance
schedule. SeeMaintenance Schedule
0 389.
Tires are rotated to achieve a more
uniform wear for all tires. The first
rotation is the most important.
Anytime unusual wear is noticed, rotate
the tires as soon as possible, check for
proper tire inflation pressure, and check
for damaged tires or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel alignment. See
When It Is Time for New Tires 0357
and
Wheel Replacement 0360.
Use this rotation pattern when rotating
the tires.
Do not include the spare tire in the tire
rotation.
Adjust the front and rear tires to the
recommended inflation pressure on the
Tire and Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See Tire
Pressure 0349 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0193. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor System.
See
Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
0 351.
Check that all wheel nuts are properly
tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque”
under Capacities and Specifications
0 395 and “Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire” underTire
Changing 0369.
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
cause wheel nuts to become loose
over time. The wheel could come off
and cause a crash. When changing a
wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, a cloth
or paper towel can be used; however,
use a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.

11. Remove any rust or dirt from the wheelbolts, mounting surfaces, and spare
wheel.
12. Place the spare tire on the wheel-mounting surface.
{Warning
Never use oil or grease on bolts or nuts
because the nuts might come loose. The
vehicle's wheel could fall off, causing a
crash.
13. Reinstall the wheel nuts. Tighten each nut by hand until the wheel is held
against the hub. 14. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack
handle counterclockwise.
{Warning
Wheel nuts that are improperly or
incorrectly tightened can cause the
wheels to become loose or come off. The
wheel nuts should be tightened with a
torque wrench to the proper torque
specification after replacing. Follow the
torque specification supplied by the
aftermarket manufacturer when using
accessory locking wheel nuts. See
Capacities and Specifications 0395 for
original equipment wheel nut torque
specifications.
Caution
Improperly tightened wheel nuts can lead
to brake pulsation and rotor damage. To
avoid expensive brake repairs, evenly
tighten the wheel nuts in the proper
sequence and to the proper torque
specification. See Capacities and
Specifications 0395 for the wheel nut
torque specification.
15. Tighten the wheel nuts firmly in a crisscross sequence, as shown.
16. Lower the jack all the way and remove the jack from under the vehicle.
17. Tighten the wheel nuts firmly with the wheel wrench.
Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and Tools
{Warning
Storing a jack, a tire, or other equipment
in the passenger compartment of the
vehicle could cause injury. In a sudden
stop or collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in the
proper place.
