Inspect the vehicle’s tires and make sure they are inflated
to the correct pressures. Do not forget to check the spare
tire, if the vehicle has one. See Inflation - Tire Pressure
on page 5-64. If the vehicle has a spare tire, check to
make sure it is stored securely. See Changing a Flat Tire
on page 5-104.

size tires at all four wheel positions and may be required
for high mileage highway drivers prior to the Engine Oil
Life System service notification. Check the tires for wear
and, if necessary, rotate the tires. See Tire Inspection
and Rotation on page 5-71.
