Brake Test

To carry out this test, proceed as follows:

  1. Warm the brakes by slowing the vehicle a few times from 80-32 km/h (50-20 MPH) using light braking applications. At highway speeds of 89-97 km/h (55-60 MPH), apply the brake using a light pedal force.
  2. Accelerate to 89-97 km/h (55-60 MPH).
  3. Lightly apply the brakes and slow the vehicle to 32 km/h (20 MPH).
  4. A brake vibration noise can be felt in the steering wheel, seat or brake pedal. A brake noise can be heard upon brake application and diminish when the brake is release.
