If the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS Indicator Comes On or 
Blinks

■

Reasons for the indicator to come on or blink

A tire pressure is significantly low, or the TPMS has not been calibrated.
If there is a problem with the TPMS, the indicator blinks for about one 
minute, and then stays on.
If the compact spare tire is installed, the indicator will either come on or 
it will first blink for about one minute, then stay on.

■

What to do when the indicator comes on

Drive carefully and avoid abrupt cornering and hard braking.
Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire pressure and adjust the 
pressure to the specified level. The specified tire pressure is on a label on 
the driver side doorjamb.

u

Calibrate the TPMS after the tire pressure is adjusted.

■

What to do when the indicator blinks, then remains on

Have the tire inspected by a dealer as soon as possible. If the compact 
spare tire causes the indicator to first blink, and then stay on, change the 
tire to a regular tire. The indicator goes off after calibrating the TPMS.

If the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS Indicator Comes On or Blinks

Emergency Towing

Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.

■

Flatbed equipment

The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck.

This is the best way to transport your vehicle.

■

Wheel lift equipment

The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the front tires and lift them off 
the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground. 

This is an acceptable way to 

tow your vehicle.

1

Emergency Towing

NOTICE

Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will 
cause serious damage. The bumpers are not designed 
to support the vehicle’s weight.

NOTICE

Improper towing such as towing behind a 
motorhome or other motor vehicle can damage the 
transmission.

Never tow your vehicle with just a rope or chain.
It is very dangerous since ropes or chains may shift 
from side to side or break.

Make sure the parking brake is released. If you 
cannot release the parking brake, your vehicle must 
be transported by the flatbed equipment.

Emissions Testing

Testing of Readiness Codes

Your vehicle has readiness code as part of the onboard self diagnostic system. Some 
states use these codes for testing to verify whether your vehicle’s emissions 
components are working properly.
The codes may not be read properly if testing is performed just after the battery has 
gone dead or been disconnected.

To check if they are set, set the power mode to ON, without starting the engine. The 
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it then goes off, the 
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes are not set.

If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness codes are ready, 
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:

1.

Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.

2.

Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.

3.

Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).

4.

Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for 20 
seconds.

5.

Keep the vehicle in 

(

P

. Increase the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there 

for about three minutes.

6.

Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.

1

Testing of Readiness Codes

The readiness codes are erased when the battery is 
disconnected, and set again only after several days of 
driving under a variety of conditions.

If a testing facility determines that the readiness 
codes are not set, you may be requested to return at 
a later date to complete the test.

If the testing facility determines the readiness codes 
are still not set, see a dealer.

Statement on Warranty Coverage for Aftermarket and Recycled Parts

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. s.2301 et seq., makes it illegal for 
motor vehicle manufacturers to void a motor vehicle warranty or deny warranty 
coverage solely because an aftermarket or recycled part has been used to repair the 
vehicle or someone other than the authorized service provider performed service on 
the vehicle. 
This provision does not apply to a new motor vehicle purchased solely for 
commercial or industrial use.
Under federal law, a manufacturer may deny warranty coverage and charge for repairs 
to a vehicle if it is discovered that an aftermarket or recycled part installed on the 
vehicle is defective or was installed incorrectly and caused damage to another part of 
the vehicle otherwise covered under warranty. 
The Federal Trade Commission requires that a manufacturer demonstrate that an 
aftermarket or recycled part or service performed by a person other than an 
authorized service provider caused damage to another part of the vehicle otherwise 
covered under warranty before denying warranty coverage. 
Additionally, federal law allows a manufacturer to void a motor vehicle warranty or 
deny warranty coverage if the manufacturer provides the article or service to 
consumers free of charge under the warranty or the manufacturer has secured a 
waiver from the Federal Trade Commission.
