Steering
Hydraulic Power Steering
Your vehicle has hydraulic power steering. It may require maintenance. See Power Steering Fluid.
If power steering assist is lost due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can be steered, but may require increased effort.
See your dealer if there is a problem.
Curve Tips
- Take curves at a reasonable speed.
- Reduce speed before entering a curve.
- Maintain a reasonable steady speed through the curve.
- Wait until the vehicle is out of the curve before accelerating gently into the
straightaway.
Steering in Emergencies
- There are some situations when steering around a problem may be more
effective than braking.
- Holding both sides of the steering wheel allows you to turn 180 degrees
without removing a hand.
- The Antilock Brake System (ABS) allows steering while braking.
