System
Warning
Light
Your vehicle’s hydraulic brake system
is
divided into
two parts.
If
one part isn’t working, the other part can
still
work and stop
you.
For good braking, though,
you
need both parts working well.
If the warning light comes
on,
there could be
a
brake
problem. Have your brake system inspected right away.
