Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rot\
ors for surface condition. Inspect
other brake parts, including calipers, parking brake, etc. Check parking brake adjustment. You
may need to have your brakes inspected more often
if your driving habits or conditions result in
frequent braking.
NOTE: A low brake fluid level can indicate worn disc brake pads which \
may need to be
serviced.
Also, if the brake system warning light stays on or comes on, something may be wrong
with the brake system.
See the Ida under Brake System Warning Light. If your vehicle is
equipped with anti-lock brakes and the anti-lock brake system w\
arning light
stays on, comes on
or flashes, something may be wrong with the anti-lock brake system. See the
