Warning (Continued)
wheel could come off and
cause a crash. When
changing a wheel, remove
any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel
attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, a cloth or
paper towel can be used;
however, use a scraper
or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the inner
diameter of the wheel hub
opening with wheel bearing
grease after a wheel
change or tire rotation to
prevent corrosion or rust
build-up.{Warning
Do not apply grease to
the wheel mounting
surface, wheel conical
seats, or the wheel nuts
or bolts. Grease applied
to these areas could
cause a wheel to become
loose or come off,
resulting in a crash.
When It Is Time for
New Tires
Factors, such as maintenance,
temperatures, driving speeds,
vehicle loading, and road
conditions affect the wear
rate of the tires.
Treadwear indicators are one
way to tell when it is time for
new tires. Treadwear
indicators appear when the
tires have only 1.6 mm (1/16 in)
or less of tread remaining. See
Tire Inspection 0347 and
Tire Rotation 0348.
The rubber in tires ages over
time. This also applies to the
spare tire, if the vehicle has
one, even if it is never used.
Multiple factors including
temperatures, loading
conditions, and inflation
pressure maintenance affect
how fast aging takes place.

Vehicle Care 351
performance may be
adversely affected if all the
tires are not replaced at
the same time. If proper
rotation and maintenance
have been done, all four
tires should wear out at
about the same time.
However, if it is necessary
to replace only one axle set
of worn tires, place the
new tires on the rear axle.
See Tire Rotation0348.
{Warning
Tires could explode
during improper service.
Attempting to mount or
dismount a tire could
cause injury or death.
Only your dealer or
authorized tire service
center should mount or
dismount the tires.
{Warning
Mixing tires of different
sizes (other than those
originally installed on the
vehicle), brands, tread
patterns, or types may
cause loss of vehicle
control, resulting in a
crash or other vehicle
damage. Use the correct
size, brand, and type of
tire on all wheels.
{Warning
Using bias-ply tires on
the vehicle may cause the
wheel rim flanges to
develop cracks after
many miles of driving.
A tire and/or wheel could
fail suddenly and cause a
crash. Use only radial-ply
tires with the wheels on
the vehicle. Winter tires with the same
speed rating as the original
equipment tires may not be
available for H, V, W, Y and
ZR speed rated tires. Never
exceed the winter tires’
maximum speed capability
when using winter tires
with a lower speed rating.
If the vehicle tires must be
replaced with a tire that
does not have a TPC Spec
number, make sure they
are the same size, load
range, speed rating, and
construction (radial) as the
original tires.
The Tire and Loading
Information label indicates
the original equipment tires
on the vehicle. See Vehicle
Load Limits
0202.

368 Vehicle Care
Caution (Continued)
used on roads for conditions
such as dust and ice. Always
wash the chrome with soap
and water after exposure.
Caution
To avoid surface damage on
wheels and wheel trim, do
not use strong soaps,
chemicals, abrasive polishes,
cleaners, or brushes. Use
only GM approved cleaners.
Do not drive the vehicle
through an automatic car
wash that uses silicon
carbide tire/wheel cleaning
brushes. Damage could
occur and the repairs would
not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.
Brake System
Visually inspect brake lines
and hoses for proper hook-up,
binding, leaks, cracks, chafing,
etc. Inspect disc brake padsfor wear and rotors for
surface condition. Inspect all
other brake parts.
Steering, Suspension, and
Chassis Components
Visually inspect steering,
suspension, and chassis
components for damaged,
loose, or missing parts or signs
of wear at least once a year.
Inspect power steering for
proper electrical connections,
binding, cracks, chafing, etc.
Visually check constant
velocity joint boots and axle
seals for leaks.
Body Component
Lubrication
Lubricate all key lock cylinders,
hood hinges, and liftgate
hinges unless the components
are plastic. Applying silicone
grease on weatherstrips with
a clean cloth will make them
last longer, seal better, and
not stick or squeak.
Underbody Maintenance
At least twice a year, spring
and fall, use plain water to
flush any corrosive materials
from the underbody. Take care
to thoroughly clean any areas
where mud and other debris
can collect.
Do not directly power wash
the transfer case and/or
front/rear axle output seals.
High pressure water can
overcome the seals and
contaminate the fluid.
Contaminated fluid will
decrease the life of the
transfer case and/or axles and
should be replaced.
Sheet Metal Damage
If the vehicle is damaged and
requires sheet metal repair or
replacement, make sure the
body repair shop applies
anti-corrosion material to
parts repaired or replaced to
restore corrosion protection.

General
Information
Your vehicle is an important
investment. This section
describes the required
maintenance for the vehicle.
Follow this schedule to help
protect against major repair
expenses resulting from
neglect or inadequate
maintenance. It may also help
to maintain the value of the
vehicle if it is sold. It is the
responsibility of the owner to
have all required maintenance
performed.
Your dealer has trained
technicians who can perform
required maintenance using
genuine replacement parts.
They have up-to-date tools
and equipment for fast and
accurate diagnostics. Many
dealers have extended
evening and Saturday hours,
courtesy transportation, and
online scheduling to assist
with service needs. Your dealer recognizes the
importance of providing
competitively priced
maintenance and repair
services. With trained
technicians, the dealer is the
place for routine maintenance
such as tire rotations and
additional maintenance items
like tires, brakes, batteries,
and wiper blades.
Caution
Damage caused by improper
maintenance can lead to
costly repairs and may not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Maintenance
intervals, checks,
inspections, recommended
fluids, and lubricants are
important to keep the
vehicle in good working
condition.
Do not have chemical
flushes that are not
approved by GM performed
on the vehicle. The use of

Caution (Continued)
flushes, solvents, cleaners,
or lubricants that are not
approved by GM could
damage the vehicle,
requiring expensive repairs
that are not covered by the
vehicle warranty.
The Tire Rotation and
Required Services are the
responsibility of the vehicle
owner. It is recommended to
have your dealer perform
these services every
12 000 km/7,500 mi. Proper
vehicle maintenance helps to
keep the vehicle in good
working condition.
The Additional Required
Services are for vehicles that:
.Carry passengers and cargo
within recommended limits
on the Tire and Loading
Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits 0202.
.Are driven on reasonable
road surfaces within legal
driving limits.
{Warning
Performing maintenance
work can be dangerous and
can cause serious injury.
Perform maintenance work
only if the required
information, proper tools,
and equipment are available.
If they are not, see your
dealer to have a trained
technician do the work. See
Doing Your Own Service
Work 0309.
Maintenance
Schedule
Rotate Tires and Perform
Required Services Every
12 000 km (7,500 mi)
.Rotate the tires. Rotating
the tires helps achieve a
more uniform wear. The first
rotation is the most important. Anytime you
notice unusual tire wear,
rotate the tires as soon as
possible, check for proper
tire inflation pressure, and
check for damage to tires or
wheels. If unusual wear
continues after a rotation,
check the wheel alignment.
See When It Is Time for New
Tires
0349 and
Wheel Replacement 0354.
.Perform the Multi-Point
Vehicle Inspection. See
Multi-Point Vehicle
Inspection (MPVI) 0377.
.Lubricate body components.
See Exterior Care 0364.

Multi-Point Vehicle
Inspection (MPVI)
A Multi Point Vehicle
Inspection (MPVI) completed
by a GM dealer technician is a
maintenance assessment of
your vehicle. The benefit of
the MPVI is to identify and
inform the customer of service
items that require immediate
attention and those that may
require attention in the future.
The technician will perform the
following checks on your
vehicle. For a complete list of
checks, inspections, and
services, see your dealer.
