Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body near the exhaust
system. Look for broken, damaged, missing or out-of-position parts as we1
as open seams, holes, loose connections, or other conditions which could
cause a heat build-up in
the floor pan or could let exhaust fumes into the
vehicle. See “Engine Exhaust” in the Index.
Accelerator Control System
Lubricate all pivot points with engine oil, except the TBI throttle shaft. Do
not lubricate the cam pulley. Remove all external deposits from pulley. Do
not oil any accelerator or cruise control cables. Replace any cables that hav
high effort or excessive wear.
Drive Axle Service
Check readfront axle fluid level and add as needed. Check constant velocit:
joints and axle seals for leaking.
Transfer Case (All- Wheel and Four- Wheel Drive) Inspection
Every 12 months or at oil change intervals, check front axle and transfer
case and add lubricant when necessary. Check
vent hose at transfer case for
kinks and proper installation. More frequent lubrication may be required or
off-road use.

Section
Here you will find out how to contact Chevrolet if you need assistance. This
section also tells you how to obtain service publications and how to report
any
safety defects.
This section includes information on: The Customer Satisfaction Procedure,
Customer Assistance for Hearing or Speech Impaired,
BBB Auto Line -

Customer Satisfaction Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are important to your dealer and Chevrolet.
Normally, any concern
with the sales transaction or the operation of your
vehicle
will be resolved by your dealer’s Sales or Service Departments.
Sometimes, however, despite the best intentions of all concerned,
misunderstandings
can occur. If your concern has not been resolved to your
satisfaction, the following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE - Discuss your concern with a member of dealership
management. Normally, concerns can be quickly resolved at that level. If
the matter has already been reviewed
with the Sales, Service, or Parts
Manager, contact the owner
of the dealership or the General Manager.
8-1

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine STEP WO - If after contacting a member of dealership management, it

help, contact the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center by calling

GM Participation in BBB AUTO LINE -
Alternative Dispute Resolution Program*
*This program may not be available in all states, depending on state law.
Canadian owners refer to your Warranty and Owner Assistance Inf\
ormation
booklet. General Motors reserves the right to change eligibility\
limitations
and/or to discontinue its participation in this program.
Both Chevrolet and your Chevrolet dealer are committed
to making sure
you are completely satisfied with your new vehicle. Our experience has
shown that, if a situation arises where
you feel your concern has not been
adequately addressed, the Customer Satisfaction Procedure described earlier
in this section is very successful.
There may be instances where
an impartial third-party can assist in arriving
at a solution to a disagreement regarding vehicle repairs or interpretation of
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. To assist in resolving these \
disagreements, Chevrolet voluntarily participates in BBB AUTO LIN\
E.
BBB AUTO LINE is an out-of-court program administered by the B\
etter
Business Bureau system
to settle disputes between customers and
automobile manufacturers. This program is available free of charge to
customers who currently own or lease a GM vehicle.
If
you are not satisfied after following the Customer Satisfaction Procedure,
you may contact the BBB using the toll-free telephone number, \
or write
them at the following address:
BBB AUTO
LINE
Council of Better Business Bureaus
4200 Wilson Boulevard
Suite
800
Arlington, VA 22203
Telephone: 1-800-955-5 100
8-3

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To file a claim, you will be asked to provide your name and address, your
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), and a statement of the nature of your
complaint. Eligibility is limited by vehicle age and mileage, and other
factors.
We prefer
you utilize the Customer Satisfaction Procedure before you resort
to AUTO LINE, but you
may contact the BBB at any time. The BBB will
attempt to resolve the complaint serving as an intermediary between you
and Chevrolet. If this mediation is unsuccessful,
an informal hearing will be
scheduled where eligible customers may present their case to
an impartial
third-party arbitrator.
The arbitrator will make a decision which you'may accept or reject. If you
accept the decision,
GM will be bound by that decision. The entire dispute
resolution procedure should ordinarily take about forty days fro\
m the time
you file a claim until a decision is made.
Some state laws may require you to use this program before filing
a claim
with
a state-run arbitration program or in the courts. For further
information, contact
the BBB at 1-800-955-5 100 or the Chevrolet
Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-222-1020.
REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS TO THE
UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in addition to notifying
General Motors.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints,
it may open an investigation, and if
it finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles,
it may order a recall
and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in
individual problems between you, your dealer, or General Motors.\

To contact NHTSA, you may either call the
Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at
1-800-424-9393 (or 366-0123 in the Washington, D.C. area) or write to:
NHTSA,
US. Department of Transportation
Washington, D.C. 20590
You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the
Hotline.
