distances only a few times
a week. Or you may drive
long distances
all the time in very hot. dusty weather.
You may use your vehicle
in making deliveries. Or
you may drive
it to work. to do errands or in many
other ways.
Because
of all the different ways people use their GM
vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You may even need
more frequent checks and replacements than
you'll find
in the schedules in this section. So please read this
section and note how you drive.

questions
on how to keep your vehicle in good
