Tires are rotated to achieve a
more uniform wear for all tires.
The first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as
soon as possible, check for
proper tire inflation pressure,
and check for damaged tires
or wheels. If the unusual wear
continues after the rotation,
check the wheel alignment.
See When It Is Time for New
Tires0431 and

STEP THREE—Canadian
Owners : In the event that you
do not feel your concerns
have been addressed after
following the procedure
outlined in Steps One and
Two, General Motors of
Canada Company wants you
to be aware of its participation
in a no-charge mediation/
arbitration program. General
Motors of Canada Company
has committed to binding arbitration of owner disputes
involving factory-related
vehicle service claims. The
program provides for the
review of the facts involved by
an impartial third party arbiter,
and may include an informal
hearing before the arbiter. The
program is designed so that
the entire dispute settlement
process, from the time you file
your complaint to the final
decision, should be completed
in about 70 days. We believe
our impartial program offers
advantages over courts in
most jurisdictions because it is
informal, quick, and free of
charge.
