VEHICLE STORAGE
If you plan on storing your vehicle for 30
days or more, read the following
maintenance recommendations to make sure
your vehicle stays in good operating
condition.
We engineer and test all motor vehicles and
their components for reliable, regular driving.
Under various conditions, long-term storage
may lead to degraded engine performance
or failure unless you use specific precautions
to preserve engine components.
General
• Store all vehicles in a dry, ventilatedplace.
• Protect from sunlight, if possible.
• If vehicles are stored outside, they require regular maintenance to protect
against rust and damage.
Body
• Wash your vehicle thoroughly to removedirt, grease, oil, tar or mud from exterior
surfaces, rear-wheel housing and the
underside of front fenders.
• Periodically wash your vehicle if it is stored in exposed locations.
• Touch-up exposed or primed metal to prevent rust.
• Cover chrome and stainless steel parts with a thick coat of auto wax to prevent
discoloration. Re-wax as necessary when
you wash your vehicle.
• Lubricate all hood, door and luggage compartment hinges and latches with a
light grade oil. • Cover interior trim to prevent fading.
• Keep all rubber parts free from oil and
solvents.

contaminates which may cause engine
damage.

with the climate controls set to defrost

operating temperature.

again.
