Note:   Occasional brake noise is normal.If a metal-to-metal, continuous grinding or continuous squeal sound is present, the brake linings may be worn-out. If your vehicle has continuous vibration or shudder in the steering wheel when braking, have your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Note:   Brake dust may accumulate on the wheels, even under normal driving conditions.Some dust is inevitable as the brakes wear.   See   Cleaning the Wheels.

 Wet brakes result in reduced braking efficiency. Gently press the brake pedal a few times when driving from a car wash or standing water to dry the brakes.
Brake Over Accelerator
 In the event the accelerator pedal becomes stuck or entrapped, apply steady and firm pressure to the brake pedal to slow your vehicle and reduce engine power. If you experience this condition, apply the brakes and bring your vehicle to a safe stop. For vehicles with automatic transmission, shift into park (P). For vehicles with manual transmission, shift into neutral. Switch the engine off and apply the parking brake. Check the accelerator pedal and the area around it for any items or debris that may be obstructing its movement.If none are found and the condition persists, have your vehicle immediately checked.
Brake Assist
