The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the

the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to the
completion of the vehicle's useful life. We, however,
urge that all recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the maintenance
be recorded.# Lubricate the parking brake lever and cable,
suspension system and propeller shafts and steering
wheel linkage.
