At Least Twice a Year Automatic Transmission Check
Restraint System Check
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 air bag covers, and
have them repaired or replaced.
(The air bag system
does not need regular maintenance.)
Fluid Level Check
Check the transfer case, axle differential(s) and
automatic
or manual transmission fluid levels and add as
needed. See “Transfer Case,” “Axle, Rear,” “Axle,
Front” and “Automatic Transmission” or “Manual
Transmission”
in the Index. A fluid loss in these systems
could indicate a problem. Have the system inspected and
repaired
at once.
Check the transmission fluid level; add if needed. See
“Automatic Transmission”
in the Index. A fluid IOSS may
indicate
a problem. Check the system and repair if needed.
At Least Once a Year
