(b) Visually inspect front and rear suspension and

steering system for damaged, loose, or missing parts,

are cracked, swollen, or deteriorated. Inspect all pipes,

ﬁttings, and clamps; replace with genuine GM parts as

needed. To help ensure proper operation, a pressure test

of the cooling system and pressure cap and cleaning the

outside of the radiator and air conditioning condenser is

recommended at least once a year.

(d) Visually inspect wiper blades for wear or cracking.

Replace wiper blades that appear worn or damaged

or that streak or miss areas of the windshield.

(e) Make sure the safety belt reminder light and all your

belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors, and anchorages

are working properly. Look for any other loose or

damaged safety belt system parts. If you see anything

that might keep a safety belt system from doing its

job, have it repaired. Have any torn or frayed safety belts

replaced. Also look for any opened or broken airbag

coverings, and have them repaired or replaced.

The airbag system does not need regular maintenance.

(f) Lubricate all key lock cylinders, hood latch assembly,

secondary latch, pivots, spring anchor, release pawl,

rear compartment hinges, outer liftgate handle pivot

points, rear door detent link, roller mechanism, liftgate

handle pivot points, latch bolt, fuel door hinge, cargo

door hinge, locks, and folding seat hardware. More

frequent lubrication may be required when exposed to a

corrosive environment. Applying silicone grease on

weatherstrips with a clean cloth will make them

last longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak.

(g) Check vent hose at transfer case for kinks and

proper installation.

(h) Change automatic transmission ﬂuid and ﬁlter if the

vehicle is mainly driven under one or more of these

conditions:

− In heavy city traffic where the outside temperature

regularly reaches 90°F (32°C) or higher.

− In hilly or mountainous terrain.

− When doing frequent trailer towing.

− Uses such as found in taxi, police, or delivery

service.

(i) Drain, ﬂush, and reﬁll cooling system. This service

can be complex; you should have your dealer perform

this service. See Engine Coolant on page 5-25 for

what to use. Inspect hoses. Clean radiator, condenser,

pressure cap, and ﬁller neck. Pressure test the

cooling system and pressure cap.
