Tire Chains
{Warning
If the vehicle has
235/40R18, 235/35R19,
255/35ZR18, or
275/35ZR18 size tires, do
not use tire chains. There is
not enough clearance. Tire
chains used on a vehicle
without the proper amount
of clearance can cause
damage to the brakes,
suspension, or other vehicle
parts. The area damaged by
the tire chains could cause
loss of control and a crash.
Use another type of traction
device only if its
manufacturer recommends
it for the vehicle's tire size
combination and road
conditions. Follow that
manufacturer's instructions.
To avoid vehicle damage,
drive slow and readjust or
remove the traction device if(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
it contacts the vehicle. Do
not spin the wheels.
If traction devices are used,
install them on the rear tires.
Caution
If the vehicle is equipped
with a tire size other than
235/40R18, 235/35R19,
255/35ZR18, or
275/35ZR18, use tire chains
only where legal and only
when necessary. Use low
profile chains that add no
more than 12 mm thickness
to the tire tread and inner
sidewall. Use chains that are
the proper size for the tires.
Install them on the tires of
the rear axle. Don't use
chains on the tires of the
front axle. Tighten them as
tightly as possible with the
ends securely fastened.
Drive slowly and follow the(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
chain manufacturer's
instructions. If the chains
contact the vehicle, stop and
retighten them. If the
contact continues, slow
down until it stops. Driving
too fast or spinning the
wheels with chains on will
damage the vehicle.
If a Tire Goes Flat
It is unusual for a tire to blow
out while driving, especially if
the tires are maintained
properly. If air goes out of a
tire, it is much more likely to
leak out slowly. See Tires
0413 for additional
information. But if there ever
is a blowout, here are a few
tips about what to expect and
what to do:
If a front tire fails, the flat tire
creates a drag that pulls the
vehicle toward that side. Take
your foot off the accelerator
pedal and grip the steering

460 Vehicle Care
Steering, Suspension, and
Chassis Components
Visually inspect steering,
suspension, and chassis
components for damaged,
loose, or missing parts or signs
of wear at least once a year.
Inspect power steering for
proper attachment,
connections, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc.
Visually check constant
velocity joint boots and axle
seals for leaks.
Body Component
Lubrication
Lubricate all key lock cylinders,
hood hinges, liftgate hinges,
and the steel fuel door hinges,
unless the components are
plastic. Applying silicone
grease on weatherstrips with
a clean cloth will make them
last longer, seal better, and
not stick or squeak.
Underbody Maintenance
Every six months, use plain
water to flush any corrosive
materials from the underbody.
Take care to thoroughly clean
any areas where mud and
other debris can collect.
Do not directly power wash
the transfer case and/or
front/rear axle output seals.
High pressure water can
overcome the seals and
contaminate the fluid.
Contaminated fluid will
decrease the life of the
transfer case and/or axles and
should be replaced.
Sheet Metal Damage
If the vehicle is damaged and
requires sheet metal repair or
replacement, make sure the
body repair shop applies
anti-corrosion material to
parts repaired or replaced to
restore corrosion protection.Original manufacturer
replacement parts will provide
the corrosion protection while
maintaining the vehicle
warranty.
Finish Damage
Quickly repair minor chips and
scratches with touch-up
materials available from your
dealer to avoid corrosion.
Larger areas of finish damage
can be corrected in your
dealer's body and paint shop.
Chemical Paint Spotting
Airborne pollutants can fall
upon and attack painted
vehicle surfaces causing
blotchy, ring-shaped
discolorations, and small,
irregular dark spots etched
into the paint surface. See
“Finish Care”
previously in this
section.
