TIRE WEAR – VISUAL CHECK
WARNING
Beware of Sudden Tire Vibration. A tire failure may lead
to loss of vehicle control, which could cause serious personal
injury or death. Many tire failures are preceded by vibration,
bumps, bulges, or irregular wear. If while driving your vehicle
you experience any unusual vibration, pull, ride disturbance, or
noise and/or you suspect possible vehicle or tire damage, do not
continue to drive. Pull over to a safe area as soon as possible and
inspect the tires for signs of bulges, blisters, or separations. Seek
roadside assistance or change the damaged tire with your spare
tire.
If you experience a blowout or a sudden tire failure, the following
information should be helpful:
• When the tire failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, or
feel a vibration, and/or the vehicle may pull toward the side
of the failed tire. Do not abruptly brake or turn.
• Maintain steady pressure on the accelerator pedal.
• Hold the steering wheel fi rmly and steer to maintain your
lane position.
• Find a safe place to pull off the road and allow the vehicle
to gradually decelerate. Apply light braking as required to
stop safely.
• Gradually pull over to the shoulder and come to a stop.
Look for a damaged tire on your vehicle.
