Q.‘ What’s wrong with-this?
A.: The belt is twisted ~CTOSS the .body.
I CAUTION:
You can be seriously injured by a twisted belt.
In a crash,
you wouldn’t have the full width c
the belt to take impact forces. If a belt is twisted,
make it straight
so it can work proper1 or ask
your dealer to
fix it.
Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance
The wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced
carefully at the factory to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not'need to have your wheels
aligned again. However, if
you notice unusual tire wear
or your vehicle pulling one way
or the other, the
alignment may need to be reset.
If you notice your
vehicle vibrating when driving
on a smooth road, your
wheels may need to be rebalanced.
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked .I or badly rusted.
If wheel nuts keep coming loose, the wheel, wheel bolts,
and wheel nuts should be replaced.
If the wheel leaks air
out, replace it (except some aluminum wheels, which
can sometimes be repaired). See. your Buick dealer
if
any of these conditions exist.
Your dealer will how the kind
of wheel you need.
Each new wheel should have the same load carrying capacity, diameter, width, offset, and be mounted the
same way as the one it replaces.
If you need to replace-any of your wheels, wheel bolts,
or wheel nuts, replace them only with new
GM original equipment parts. This
way,
you will be sure to have the
right wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel
nuts for your Buick
model.
/! CA-TION:
Using the wrong replacement wheels, wheel
bolts, or wheel nuts on your vehicle can be
dangerous.
It could affect the braking and
handling of your vehicle, make your tires lose
air and make you lose control.
