If you experience a blowout or a sudden tire failure, the following
information should be helpful:
• When the tire failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, or feel a
v
ibration, and/or the vehicle may pull toward the side of the failed
tire. Do not abruptly brake or turn.
• Maintain steady pressure on the accelerator pedal.
•
Hold the steering wheel firmly and steer to maintain your lane posi -
t
ion.
• Find a safe place to pull off the road and allow the vehicle to gradu -
a
lly decelerate. Apply light braking as required to stop safely.
• Gradually pull over to the shoulder and come to a stop. Look for a
d
amaged tire on your vehicle.
• Seek roadside assistance or change the damaged tire with your
s
pare tire.
• Have all of your tires and the vehicle thoroughly inspected by a tire
p
rofessional.
TIRE ROTATION
The purpose for rotating tires is to achieve more uniform wear for all
ti
res on a vehicle. Your tires should be thoroughly examined on a lift
by a tire dealer for any abnormalities. If tires show uneven treadwear,
ask the service person to check and/or correct any vehicle wheel
alignment or other mechanical problem before rotation.
The following rotation patterns are acceptable. Please refer to your
ve
hicle Owner’s Manual for rotation advice.

TIRE SPINNING
TOWING OR USE OF SLIDE-IN TRUCK CAMPERS
If you are towing a trailer or using a slide-in truck camper, refer to
y o
ur vehicle Owner’s Manual.
WINTER (SNOW) TIRES Winter driving presents special challenges for vehicle
handling. The use of winter tires, studs, and chains,
wh
ile improving traction performance in snow and ice,
requires additional caution and care with regard to
braking, cornering, and speed. It is important to drive
with care not only on snow and ice, but on dry and wet
roads as well.
• T raction is considerably reduced as snow tires approach 50% tread
w
ear, and replacement should be considered in order to maintain
effectiveness in heavy snow conditions.
• Tire speed rating – When lower-speed-rated winter tires replace
h
igher-speed-rated touring and high performance all-season radial
tires, do not exceed the lower-rated speed.
WARNING!
Spinning a tire to remove a vehicle stuck in mud, snow, or wet
gr
ass can be dangerous. This could cause serious personal injury
or death to a bystander or passenger and extensive vehicle
damage. A tire spinning at a speedometer reading above 35 miles
pe
r hour (55 km/h) can reach a speed capable of disintegrating a
ti
re with explosive force within a matter of seconds. Under some
conditions, a tire may be spinning at twice the speed shown on
the speedometer. Never spin a tire above a speedometer reading
of 35 mph (55 km/h). Never allow anyone to stand near or directly
be
hind the spinning tire. Do not spin if a drive wheel is off the
ground.
WARNING!
Studded tires may require longer braking distances on dry or wet
pa
ved surfaces. Failure to allow for adequate braking distance
could result in serious personal injury or death.
