a particular side that faces
outward when mounted on
a vehicle. The side of the
tire that contains a
whitewall, bears white
lettering, or bears
manufacturer, brand, and/
or model name molding
that is higher or deeper
than the same moldings on
the other sidewall of
the tire.
Passenger (P-Metric)
Tire
:A tire used on
passenger cars and some
light duty trucks and
multipurpose vehicles.
Recommended Inflation
Pressure

manufacturer's
recommended tire inflation
pressure as shown on the tire placard. See Tire
Pressure
0384 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0247.

:A
pneumatic tire in which the
ply cords that extend to
the beads are laid at
90 degrees to the
centerline of the tread.

384 Vehicle Care
Tread:The portion of a
tire that comes into
contact with the road.
Treadwear Indicators
:
Narrow bands, sometimes
called wear bars, that show
across the tread of a tire
when only 1.6 mm (1/16 in)
of tread remains. See
When It Is Time for New
Tires 0394.
UTQGS (Uniform Tire
Quality Grading
Standards)
:A tire
information system that
provides consumers with
ratings for a tire's traction,
temperature, and
treadwear. Ratings are
determined by tire
manufacturers using
government testing
procedures. The ratings
are molded into the sidewall of the tire. See
Uniform Tire Quality
Grading
0397.
Vehicle Capacity Weight
:
The number of designated
seating positions multiplied
by 68 kg (150 lbs) plus the
rated cargo load. See
Vehicle Load Limits 0247.
Vehicle Maximum Load on
the Tire
:Load on an
individual tire due to curb
weight, accessory weight,
occupant weight, and cargo
weight.
Vehicle Placard
:A label
permanently attached to a
vehicle showing the
vehicle's capacity weight
and the original equipment
tire size and recommended
inflation pressure. See “Tire
and Loading Information
Label” under Vehicle Load
Limits 0247.
Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct
amount of air pressure to
operate effectively.
{Warning
Neither tire underinflation
nor overinflation is good.
Underinflated tires,
or tires that do not have
enough air, can result in:
.Tire overloading and
overheating, which
could lead to a blowout
.Premature or
irregular wear
.Poor handling
.Reduced fuel economy
for internal combustion
engine vehicles
.Reduced range for
electric vehicles

High Speed Operation Inflation Pressures
Tire Size Cold Inflation Pressure kPa (psi)
235/65R18 300 kPa (44 psi)
235/55R20 300 kPa (44 psi)
Return the tires to the
recommended cold tire
inflation pressure when
high-speed driving has ended.
See Vehicle Load Limits 0247
and Tire Pressure 0384.
Tire Pressure Monitor
System
The Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS) uses radio and
sensor technology to check
tire pressure levels. The TPMS
sensors monitor the air
pressure in your tires and
transmit tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
Each tire, including the spare
(if provided), should be
checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle
has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those
tires.)
As an added safety feature,
your vehicle has been
equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or
more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces
energy efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the
vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is
not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the
driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not

coverage information.
Transportation Options
Warranty service can
generally be completed while
you wait. However, if you are
unable to do so, your dealer
may offer the following
transportation options:
Shuttle Service
This includes one-way or
round-trip shuttle service
within reasonable time and
distance parameters of your
dealer's area.
Public Transportation or Fuel
Reimbursement
If overnight warranty repairs
are needed, and public
transportation is used, the
expense must be supported
by original receipts and within
the maximum amount allowed
by GM. If U.S. customers
arrange their own
transportation, limitedreimbursement for reasonable
fuel expenses may be
available. Claim amounts
should reflect actual costs and
be supported by original
receipts. See your dealer for
information.
Courtesy Rental Vehicle
For an overnight warranty
repair, the dealer may provide
an available courtesy rental
vehicle or provide for
reimbursement of a rental
vehicle. Reimbursement is
limited and must be supported
by original receipts as well as
a signed and completed rental
agreement and meet state/
provincial, local, and rental
vehicle provider requirements.
Requirements vary and may
include minimum age
requirements, insurance
coverage, credit card, etc.
Additional fees such as fuel,
rental vehicle insurance, taxes,
levies, usage fees, excessive
mileage, or rental usage
beyond the completion of the
repair are also your
responsibility.
It may not be possible to
provide a like vehicle as a
courtesy rental.

452 Customer Information
Insurance pays the bill for the
repair, but you must live with
the repair. Depending on your
policy limits, your insurance
company may initially value the
repair using aftermarket parts.
Discuss this with the repair
professional, and insist on
Genuine GM parts. Remember,
if the vehicle is leased, you
may be obligated to have the
vehicle repaired with Genuine
GM parts, even if your
insurance coverage does not
pay the full cost.
If another party's insurance
company is paying for the
repairs, you are not obligated
to accept a repair valuation
based on that insurance
company's collision policy
repair limits, as you have no
contractual limits with that
company. In such cases, you
can have control of the repair
and parts choices as long as
the cost stays within
reasonable limits.Publication Ordering
