All-Wheel Drive Messages
Action / DescriptionAWD Messages
Displays if the AWD system disables to protect itself. This may occur
if you operate the vehicle after installing the compact spare tire, if the
system is overheating or if there is an issue with another vehicle
system that prevents the AWD system from operating. The AWD
system resumes normal operation and clears this message after you
install the road tire and you switch the ignition on and off, or after you
allow the system to cool. If this message remains on, have a qualified
technician service your vehicle to repair other vehicle systems.
AWD OFF
Displayed in conjunction with the powertrain malfunction/reduced
power light when the system is not operating properly. If the warning
stays on or continues to come on, contact your authorized dealer as
soon as possible.

Operating AWD Vehicles With Spare
Tires
A spare tire of a different size other than the
tire provided should never be used. The
AWD system may disable automatically and
enter front-wheel drive only mode to protect
driveline components if a non-full sized tire
is installed. This condition may display an
AWD OFF message in the information
display. If there is an AWD OFF message in
the information display from using a non-full
sized spare tire, this indicator should turn off
after reinstalling the repaired or replaced
normal road tire and cycling the ignition off
and on. It is recommended to reinstall the
repaired or replaced road tire as soon as
possible. Major dissimilar tire sizes between
the front and rear axles (for example, 17 inch
low profile tires on the front axle and 22 inch
high profile tires on the rear axle) could
cause the AWD system to stop functioning
and default to front-wheel drive or damage
the AWD system.
