At least every spring, flushthese materials from the underbody with plain water. Clean any areas where mud and other debriscan collect. Dirtpacked in closed areas of the frame should be loosened before being flushed. Your retailer oran underbody car washing system can do this for you. Chemical Paint Spotting Some weather and atmospheric conditionscan create a chemical fallout. Airborne pollutants can fall upon and attack painted surfaces on your vehicle. This damage can take two forms: blotchy, ringlet-shaped discolorations, and small irregular dark spots etched into the paint surface. Although no defect in the paint job causes this, Oldsmobile will repair, at no charge to the owner, the surfaces of new vehicles damaged by this fallout condition within I2 months or 12,000 miles (20 000 km) of purchase, whichever comes first. Collision Repair Your vehicle was built with composite SMC (Sheet Molded Compound) fiberglass body panels and molded RIM (ReactionInjection Molded) front fenders and bumper covers. These panels require different collision repair procedures than metal-paneled vehicles. See your Oldsrnobile retailer for information on collision repair.
