B O
Your
Driving
and
the
Road
Rear
Drum
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.
Whenyou
have the
front brakes
replaced, have
the
rear
brakes
inspected,
too.
Brake
linings
should
always
be
replaced
as
complete
axle
sets.
Brake
Pedal
Travel
S e e
your dealer if
the
brake
pedal
does
not
return
to
normal
height, or if there
is a
rapid
increase in pedal
travel. This
could
be
a
sign
of brake
trouble.
Brake
Aqustment
Every
time you make
a
brake
stop,
your
disc brakes
adjust for wear.
If
your
brake
pedal
goes
down
farther
than normal, your rear drum brakes may
need
adjustment.
Adjust
them by
backing
up
and
firmly
applying
the
brakes
a
few times.
Braking
In
Emergencies
Use
your
anti-lock
braking
system
when
you
need
to.
With anti-lock, you can
steer
and brake at the same
time.
In
many emergencies,
steering
can
help
you more than even the
very
best
braking.
Power
Steering
If
you lose power
steering
assist
because
the
engine
stops or the
system
fails
to
function, you can
steer
but
it
will
take
much more effort.
