Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km).
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your 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 5-69 and Wheel Replacement
on page 5-72 for more information.
Make sure the spare tire is stored securely. Push, pull,
and then try to rotate or turn the tire. If it moves,
use the ratchet/wheel wrench to tighten the cable. See
Changing a Flat Tire on page 5-75.
The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve more
uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. The first rotation
is the most important. See
Part A: Scheduled
Maintenance Services on page 6-4.
When rotating your tires, always use the correct rotation
patterns shown here.
Don’t include the compact spare tire in your tire rotation.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and
rear inflation pressures as shown on the
Certification/Tire label or Tire and Loading Information
label. See
Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-66
and Loading Your Vehicle on page 4-30. Make certain
that all wheel nuts are properly tightened. See
“Wheel Nut Torque” under
Capacities and Specifications
on page 5-102.
