It is designed to alert the driver of a potential rollover risk due to excessive lateral (sideways) acceleration or a sudden change in direction (abrupt stop or hard right turn).
* Possible Causes:
- Aggressive or unsafe driving
- Worn or under-inflated tires
- Faulty/leaking shock absorbers or struts
- Excessive weight in the vehicle
- Top-heavy cargo/load distribution
To ensure your safety:
- Drive at a safe and reasonable speed, avoiding abrupt maneuvers and excessive acceleration/braking.
- Maintain proper tire inflation and replace worn tires promptly.
- Ensure your shock absorbers and struts are in good condition and functioning correctly.
- Avoid overloading the vehicle or distributing cargo in a way that affects its stability and center of gravity.
Fluid levels:
The Rollover Warning Indicator is typically not related to fluid levels. However, it's always good practice to ensure your vehicle's fluid levels (e.g., oil, coolant, power steering fluid, etc.) are at the proper levels as per your vehicle's owner's manual to maintain overall performance and prevent other issues.
