Replacing Brake System Parts The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex. Its many parts have to be of top quality and work well together if the vehicle is to havereally good braking. Vehicles we design and testhave top-quality GM brake parts in them, as your Buick does when it is new. When you replace parts of your braking system -- for example, when your brake linings wear down and you have to have new ones put in -- be sure you get new genuine GM replacement parts. If you don't, your brakes may no longer work properly. For example, if someone puts in brake linings that are wrong for your vehicle, the balance between your front and rearbrakes can change, for the worse. The braking performance you've come to expect can changein many other ways if someone puts in the wrong replacement brake parts. Vehicle Storage If you're not going to driveyour vehicle for 25 days or more, take off the black, negative (-) cable fromthe battery. This will help keep your battery from running down. Battery Every new Buick has a Delco Freedom' battery. You never have to add water to one of these. When it's time for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom' battery. Get one that has the catalog number shown on the original battery's label. Contact your dealer to learn how to prepareyour vehicle for longer storage periods. 321
