After stopping the vehicle in a
safe place, check the underside of
the vehicle for any leaking brake
fluid, oil or fuel. If any fluid is leak-
ing, stop driving immediately and
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized Toyota retailer or Toy-
ota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
Brake and fuel lines run under the
floor of the vehicle. If any of these
lines are damaged, the brakes
may fail or leaking fuel may ignite
and cause a fire.
WARNING
During normal driving, do not turn
off the engine. Turning the engine
off while driving will not cause loss
of steering or braking control, but
the power assist to these systems
will be lost. This will make it more
difficult to steer and brake, so you
should pull over and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
WARNING
While driving, if a tire has been
punctured or has ruptured, firmly
grip the steering wheel, gradually
reduce the vehicle speed and
stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Avoid sudden braking and steer-
ing operations as doing so may
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle. Gradually reduce the
vehicle speed and stop the vehi-
cle in a safe place.
