Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated every
12 000 km (7,500 mi). See
Maintenance Schedule0290.
Tires are rotated to achieve a
more uniform wear for all tires.
The first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon
as possible, check for proper tire
inflation pressure, and check for
damaged tires or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment. SeeWhen It Is Time
for New Tires0262andWheel
Replacement0266.
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires.
Do not include the compact
spare tire in the tire rotation.
Adjust the front and rear tires to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See
Tire Pressure0256andVehicle
Load Limits0178.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. SeeTire Pressure
Monitor Operation0258.
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See“Wheel
Nut Torque”underCapacities
and Specifications0304.

parts to which it is fastened, can
