You press the brake pedal, but your car does not slow down. What should you do first?
A travels in the right lane beside a clear paved shoulder. The card states that pressing the brake pedal does not slow the car; no stopping route is selected.
Correct answer: Apply the parking brake slowly, steer to a safe place, and turn on your flashers.
Why
The parking brake works apart from the foot brake, so it is your backup when the foot brake fails. Pull the handle or push the pedal slowly and steadily, and steer toward a safe place off the road. Follow the maintenance schedule in the owner's manual, because regular brake checks prevent many failures.
