Footnotes
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, transmission shift linkage and parking brake
cable guides. Ball joints should not be lubricated unless their temperature is -12°C (10°F) or higher, or
they could be damaged.
(a)
Visually inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect
disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface condition. Inspect other brake parts, including calipers,
parking brake, etc.
(b)
Visually inspect front and rear suspension and steering system for damaged, loose or missing parts, signs
of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect power steering lines and hoses for proper hook-up, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Visually check constant velocity joints, rubber boots and axle seals for leaks.
(c)
Visually inspect hoses and have them replaced if they are cracked, swollen or deteriorated. Inspect all
pipes, fittings and clamps; replace with genuine GM parts as needed. To help ensure proper operation, a
pressure test of the cooling system and pressure cap and cleaning the outside of the radiator and air
conditioning condenser is recommended at least once a year.
