Underbody Maintenance

Chemicals used for ice and snow removal and dust

control can collect on the underbody. If these are not

removed, accelerated corrosion (rust) can occur on the

underbody parts such as fuel lines, frame, floor pan

and exhaust system even though they have

corrosion protection.

At least every spring, flush these materials from the

underbody with plain water. Clean any areas where mud

and other debris can collect. Dirt packed in closed areas

of the frame should be loosened before being flushed.

Your dealer or an underbody car washing system can do

this for you.

Chemical Paint Spotting

Some weather and atmospheric conditions can 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, GM

will repair, at no charge to the owner, the surfaces of

new vehicles damaged by this fallout condition within

12 months or 12,000 miles (20 000 km) of purchase,

whichever occurs first.

This applies only to materials manufactured and sold by

General Motors. Bodies, body conversions or equipment

not made or sold by General Motors are not covered.
