NOTICE: Don't let someone in the wrong kind of fluid. For put example, just a few drops of mineral-based oil, suchas engine oil, in your brake system can damage brake system parts so badly that they'll have to be replaced. Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful not to spill brake fluid on your vehicle. If you do, washit off immediately. See "Appearance Care" in theIndex. Brake Wear Your vehicle has front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. Disc brakepads have built-in wear indicators that make a high-pitched warning sound when the brake pads are worn and new pads are needed. The sound may come and go or be heard all the time your vehicle is moving (except when you are pushing on the brake pedal firmly). I NOTICE: Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads could result in costly brake repair. Some driving conditions or climates may Cause a brake squeal when the brakes are first applied or lightly applied. This does not mean something is wrong with your brakes. Your rear drum brakes don't have wear indicators, but if you ever hear a rear brake rubbing noise, have the rear brake linings inspected. Also, the rear brake drums should be removed and inspected each time the tires are removed for rotation or changing. When you have the front brakes replaced, have the rear brakes inspected, too. Brake linings should always be replaced as complete axle sets. 6-28
