BRAKE SYSTEM
If power assist is lost for any reason (for example, repeated brake applications with the engine off), the brakes will still function.
However, you will experience a substantial increase in braking effort to stop the vehicle.
If either the front or rear hydraulic system loses normal braking capability, the remaining system will still function with some loss of overall braking effectiveness. This will be evident by increased pedal travel during application, greater pedal force required to slow or stop, and activation of the “Brake Warning Light” and/or the “ABS Warning Light” during brake use.
HYDRAULIC BRAKE ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The brake system power assist is provided by a hydro-boost unit which shares fluid with the power steering system. You may experience some clicking or hissing noises from the
hydro-boost system during hard braking conditions.
Under cold temperatures, pedal effort will be higher than normal until the power steering fluid reaches operating temperature.
It is illegal to remove or alter the VIN. 9
