Tire Inspection
We recommend that you
regularly inspect the vehicle's
tires, including the spare tire,
if the vehicle has one, for signs
of wear or damage at least once
a month.
Always remove the tires if
any of the following statements
are true:
. You can see the indicators at
three or more places around
the tire.
. You can see cord or fabric
showing through the tire's
rubber.
. The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord
or fabric.
. The tire has a bump, bulge,
or split.
. The tire has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of
the size or location of the
damage.
Tire Rotation
Tire rotation is not
recommended if the vehicle
has different size tires on
the front and rear wheels.
Different tire sizes should not
be rotated front to rear. Each tire
and wheel should only be used
in its original front or rear
position.
Tire rotation is recommended if
the vehicle has the same size
tires on all four wheel positions.
These tires should be rotated
every 12 000 km (7,500 miles).
See Scheduled Maintenance on
page 11‑2.
The purpose of a regular tire
rotation is to achieve a uniform
wear for all tires on the vehicle.
This will ensure that your vehicle
continues to perform most like it
did when the tires were new.
Any time you notice unusual
wear, rotate the tires as soon
as possible and check wheel
alignment. Also check for
damaged tires or wheels.
See When It Is Time for New
Tires on page 10‑68 and Wheel
Replacement on page 10‑74.
