Brakes and Traction Control: Description and Operation

The vehicle is equipped with a vacuum-assisted power braking system.

The braking system is a front-to-rear split hydraulic system.

The front brakes utilize a dual-piston brake caliper and disc brake system.

The rear brakes utilize a single piston caliper and disc brake system with the parking brake assembly located inside the drum and hat type disc brake rotor.

The parking brake system is a shoe and drum system that is located inside the drum and hat type rear disc brake rotors.

A 4-wheel anti-lock brake system (4WABS) is standard.

A fluid control valve, mounted at the rear port of the brake master cylinder, is used on 2-door models only.
