A bad jolt from hitting a curb orpothole can cause the front endof your vehicle to becomemisaligned or cause damage toyour tires. If your vehicle seems topull to one side when you aredriving, the wheels could be out ofalignment. Have an authorizeddealer check the wheel alignmentperiodically.
Wheel misalignment in the frontor the rear can cause uneven andrapid treadwear of your tires andshould be corrected by anauthorized dealer.
INSPECTING THE WHEEL
VALVE STEMS
Check the valve stems for holes,cracks, or cuts that could permitair leakage.
TIRE ROTATION

Alwaysperform the system resetprocedure after tire rotation. Ifyou do not reset the system, itmay not provide a low tirepressure warning whennecessary.
Rotating your tires at therecommended interval will helpyour tires wear more evenly,providing better tire performanceand longer tire life.
