Operation0376.
Check that all wheel nuts
are properly tightened. See
“Wheel Nut Torque” under
Capacities and
Specifications 0433, and
“Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire”
under Tire Changing 0398.
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel,
or on the parts to which it
is fastened, can cause
wheel nuts to become
loose over time. The
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
buildup.
{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 0380 and
Tire Rotation 0381.

Maintenance
Schedule
Tire Rotation and
Required Services Every
12 000 km (7,500 mi)
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
Tires0382 and
Wheel Replacement 0387.

Vehicle Data
Recording and
Privacy
The vehicle has a number of
computers that record
information about the vehicle’s
performance and how it is
driven or used. For example,the vehicle uses computer
modules to monitor and
control engine and
transmission performance, to
monitor the conditions for
airbag deployment and deploy
them in a crash, and,
if equipped, to provide antilock
braking to help the driver
control the vehicle. These
modules may store data to
help the dealer technician
service the vehicle or to help
GM improve safety or
features. Some modules may
also store data about how the
vehicle is operated, such as
rate of fuel consumption or
average speed. These
modules may retain personal
preferences, such as radio
presets, seat positions, and
temperature settings.
