Why I shift into 4 wheel drive with 2002 Chevy Tracker?

You shift your 2002 Chevy Tracker into 4-wheel drive (4WD) when you need increased traction in slippery or difficult conditions. This is typically on:

* Snow: 4WD provides better grip on snowy or icy roads, preventing slippage and improving control.

* Ice: Similar to snow, 4WD gives you a significant advantage on icy surfaces.

* Mud: 4WD helps you power through muddy terrain where two-wheel drive might get stuck.

* Loose Gravel: Increased traction is helpful on loose gravel roads or trails.

* Steep Hills: 4WD can provide the extra power needed to climb steep inclines, especially in slippery conditions.

Important Note: Driving in 4WD on dry pavement can damage your drivetrain and is generally not recommended. Only engage 4WD when necessary for improved traction in challenging conditions. Consult your owner's manual for specific instructions on engaging and disengaging 4WD in your 2002 Chevy Tracker, as the procedure may vary slightly depending on the specific model and 4WD system.
