overheating as
a

of
too much friction.

a
serious
accident. See “Loading Your
Vehicle” in the
Index.
Underinflated tires pose the same danger as
overloaded tires. The resulting accident
could cause serious injury.
Check
all
tires
frequently
to
maintain
the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure should be
checked
when your tires
are
cold.
Overinflated
tires are
more
likely
to
be
cut,
punctured
or
broken
by
a
sudden
impact
--
such as when you hit
a
pothole.
Keep tires at the recommended pressure.
Worn, old tires
can cause accidents.
If
your
tread is badly worn, or
if
your
tires have
been damaged, replace
them.
