WARNING! (Continued)

•

Unequal tire pressures from one side of the ve-

hicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to

the right or left.

•

Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom-

mended cold tire inflation pressure.

Economy

Improper inflation pressures can cause uneven wear

patterns to develop across the tire tread. These abnormal

wear patterns will reduce tread life resulting in a need for

earlier tire replacement. Under-inflation also increases

tire rolling resistance and results in higher fuel

consumption.

Ride Comfort and Vehicle Stability

Proper tire inflation contributes to a comfortable ride.

Over-inflation produces a jarring and uncomfortable

ride.

Tire Inflation Pressures

The proper cold tire inflation pressure is listed on the

driver’s side “B” Pillar.

Some vehicles may have supplemental tire pressure

information for vehicle loads that are less than the

maximum loaded vehicle condition. These pressure con-

ditions will be found in the “Supplemental Tire Pressure

Information” section of this manual.

The pressure should be checked and adjusted as well as

inspected for signs of tire wear or visible damage at least

once a month. Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to

check tire pressure. Do not make a visual judgement

when determining proper inflation. Radial tires may look

properly inflated even when they are under-inflated.
