Part
A:
Scheduled
Maintenance
Services
Using
Your
Maintenance
Schedule
We at
General
Motors
want
to
help
you
keep
your
vehicle
in
good
working
condition.
But
we don’t
know
exactly how
you’ll
drive
it. You
may drive
very
short
distances
only a
few
times a week.
Or
you
may
drive
long
distances
all
the
time
in
very
hot,
dusty
weather.
You
may
use your
vehicle
in
making
deliveries.
Or
you
may drive
it
to
work,
to
do errands
or
in
many
other
ways.
Because of
all
the
different
ways
people
use
their
vehicles,
maintenance
needs
vary. You
may even
need
more
frequent
checks
and
replacements
than
you’ll
find
in
the
schedules
in
this
section.
So
please
read
this
section
and
note
how
you
drive.
If
you
have
any
questions
on how
to
keep
your
vehicle
in
good
condition,
see
your
dealer.
This
part
tells
you
the
maintenance
services
you
should
have
done
and
when
you
should
schedule
them.
If
you
go
to
your
dealer for your
service
needs,
you’ll
know
that
GM-trained
and
supported
service
people
will
perform
the
work
using
genuine GM parts.
The
proper
fluids
and
lubricants
to
use
are
listed
in
Part
D.
Make
sure
whoever
services
your
vehicle
uses
these.
All
parts
should
be replaced
and
all
necessary
repairs
done
before
you
or
anyone
else drives
the
vehicle.
These
schedules
are
for
vehicles
that:
carry
passengers
and
cargo
within
recommended
limits. You will
find
these
limits
on
your
vehicle’s
Tire-Loading
Information
label.

you’ll
need
to
