increased steering effort or loose-
ness in the steering wheel, or
change in its straight-ahead posi-
tion.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or "pulls" to one side
when traveling on smooth, level
road.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or "hard-to-push" brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the operation of your transmission
occurs, check the transmission
fluid level.
Check the automatic transmission/ dual clutch transmission P (Park)
function. Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your

At least monthly:
Check coolant level in the enginecoolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior lights, including the brake lights,
turn signals and hazard warning

Check the inflation pressures of all tires including the spare for tires
that are worn, show uneven wear,
or are damaged.
