Replacing Brake System Parts The bralung 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 have really good braking. Vehicles we design and test have top-quality GM brake parts in them, as your Pontiac does when it isnew. When you replace partsof your braking system -- for example, when your brake linings wear down and you have to have new ones putin -- 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 rear brakes can change -- for theworse. The braking performance you've come to expectcan change in many other ways if someone puts in the wrong replacement brake parts. Vehicle Storage If you're not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days o r more, take off the black,negative (-) cable from the battery. This will help keep your battery from running down. Battery Every new Pontiac has a Delco Freedom@battery. You never have to add water to oneof these. When it's time for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom@ battery. Get one that has the replacement number shown on _theoriginal battery's label. The battery is located in the front, driver's side cornerof the engine compartment, just below the windshield washer fluid reservoir. Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle for longer storage periods. 6-30
