(1) Or every two years, whichever comes
first. More frequent passenger compartment
air filter replacement may be needed if
driving in areas with heavy traffic, poor air
quality, high dust levels, or environmental
allergens. Passenger compartment air filter
replacement may also be needed if there is
reduced airflow, window fogging, or odors.
Your GM dealer can help determine when to
replace the filter.
(2) Visually check all fuel and vapor lines
and hoses for proper attachment,
connection, routing, and condition.
(3) Or every four years, whichever comes
first. If driving in dusty conditions, inspect
the filter at each oil change or more often
as needed. See Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
0 251.
(4) Or every five years, whichever comes
first. See Cooling System 0253.
(5) Or every 10 years, whichever comes first.
Inspect for fraying, excessive cracking,
or damage; replace, if needed. (6)
Do not directly power wash the rear axle
output seals. High pressure water can
overcome the seals and contaminate the
rear axle fluid. Contaminated fluid will
decrease the life of the axle and should be
replaced.
(7) If equipped with an automatic
transmission, replace brake fluid every five
years. If equipped with a manual
transmission, replace brake/clutch fluid
every three years. See Brake Fluid0259.
(8) Or every 12 months, whichever comes
first. See Wiper Blade Replacement 0262.
(9) Or every 10 years, whichever comes first.
See Gas Strut(s) 0263.
(10) Replace air conditioning desiccant every
seven years.

Additional Maintenance
and Care
Your vehicle is an important investment and
caring for it properly may help to avoid
future costly repairs. To maintain vehicle
performance, additional maintenance
services may be required.
It is recommended that your dealer perform
these services —their trained dealer
technicians know your vehicle best. Your
dealer can also perform a thorough
assessment with a multi-point inspection to
recommend when your vehicle may need
attention.
The following list is intended to explain the
services and conditions to look for that may
indicate services are required.
Battery
The 12-volt battery supplies power to start
the engine and operate any additional
electrical accessories.

the vehicle, maintain a battery with full
cranking power.
