tools, packages, or anything else

or if there is
a crash, they’ll keep going.
A CAUTION:
I
Things you put inside your vehicle can strike and I
injure people in a sudden stop or turn, or in a
crash.

In a trunk, put them as far forward as you
can. Try to spread the weight evenly.

vehicle, secure
it whenever you can.

Tires
We don’t make tires. Your new vehicle comes with high
quality tires made by a leading tire manufacturer. These
tires are warranted by the tire manufacturers and their
warranties are delivered with every new Buick. If your
spare tire is a different brand than your road tires, you
will have a tire warranty folder from each of these
manufacturers.
