Footnotes
-i- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item
will not nullify
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 front suspension, ball joints, steering
linkage, parking brake cable guides, propshaft splines,
universal joints and brake pedal springs.
+ A good time to check your brakes is during tire
rotation. See ;‘Brake System Inspection” under “Periodic
Maintenance Inspections”
in Part C of this schedule.
4:‘i: Drive axle service (see “Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants”
in the Index for proper lubricant to use):
Drain and refill at first oil change. At subsequent oil
changes, check fluid level and add fluid as needed.
If
driving in dusty areas or towing a trailer, drain fluid
and refill every 15,000 miles
(25 000 km).
More frequent lubrication may be required for
off-paved-road use.
