Engine power and under certain
conditions, vehicle speed will
decrease. Vehicle speed can be
controlled with the accelerator
pedal, but the vehicle may not
accelerate at the desired speed.
The transmission will downshift or
upshift as it reaches prescribed shift
points. You can also shift manually.
As driving conditions change and
engine coolant temperature is
reduced, vehicle speed can be
increased using the accelerator
pedal, and air conditioning cooling
function will automatically be turned
back ON.
If:1. The engine coolant temperature is not reduced.
2. The air conditioning cooling function does not turn
back ON.
3. The engine oil pressure low/ engine coolant temperature
high warning light illuminates,
this may indicate a malfunction.
Move the vehicle off the road in
a safe area and allow the engine to cool. If after checking
the oil and coolant, the oil
pressure low/engine coolant
temperature high warning light
remains on, do not continue to
drive. Call your dealer.
The malfunction indicator light may
also come on. If only it remains on,
you do not need to have the vehicle
towed, but have it inspected soon
by your dealer. For additional
information, see Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (Check Engine
Light) 091.
Washer Fluid
What to Use
When the vehicle needs windshield
washer fluid, read the
manufacturer's instructions before
use. If operating the vehicle in an
area where the temperature may fall
below freezing, use a fluid that has
sufficient protection against
freezing.
Adding Washer Fluid
Open the cap with the washer
symbol on it. Add washer fluid until
the reservoir is full. See Engine
Compartment Overview 0181 for
reservoir location.
Caution
. Do not use washer fluid that
contains any type of water
repellent coating. This can
cause the wiper blades to
chatter or skip.

Vehicle Care 219
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent,
cracked, or badly rusted or
corroded. If wheel nuts keep coming
loose, the wheel, wheel bolts, and
wheel nuts should be replaced.
If the wheel leaks air, replace it.
Your dealer will know the kind of
wheel that is needed.
Each new wheel should have the
same load-carrying capacity,
diameter, width, offset, and be
mounted the same way as the one it
replaces.
Replace wheels, wheel bolts, wheel
nuts, or Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS) sensors with new
GM original equipment parts.
{Warning
Using the wrong replacement
wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel
nuts can be dangerous. It could
affect the braking and handling of
the vehicle. Tires can lose air,(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
and cause loss of control, causing
a crash. Always use the correct
wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel
nuts for replacement.
Caution
The wrong wheel can also cause
problems with bearing life, brake
cooling, speedometer or
odometer calibration, headlamp
aim, bumper height, vehicle
ground clearance, and tire or tire
chain clearance to the body and
chassis.
Used Replacement Wheels
{Warning
Replacing a wheel with a used
one is dangerous. How it has
been used or how far it has been
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
driven may be unknown. It could
fail suddenly and cause a crash.
When replacing wheels, use a
new GM original equipment
wheel.
Tire Chains
Use of tire chains may be prohibited
according to location. Check the
local laws before installing tire
chains. When installing tire chains,
make sure they are the proper size
for the tires on your vehicle and are
installed according to the chain
manufacturer’s suggestions. Use
only SAE class “S”chains. Class
“S” chains are used on vehicles with
restricted tire to vehicle clearance.
Vehicles that can use Class “S”
chains are designed to meet the
minimum clearances between the
tire and the closest vehicle
suspension or body component
required to accommodate the use of
a winter traction device (tire chains
or cables).
