›› Explanation of Maintenance Items
The following descriptions are provided to give you a better under-
standing of the maintenance items that should be performed on your
vehicle. The scheduled maintenance log indicates at which mileage/
time intervals each item should be performed. Please note that many
maintenance items should be performed only by a qualified technician.
For further information on maintenance items you can perform
yourself, see the “Vehicle Maintenance and Care” and “Do-It-
Yourself Maintenance” sections of the
Owner’s Manual.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Replace at specified intervals. When performing inspections, check
each component for signs of leakage. If you discover any leakage,
have it repaired by a qualified technician immediately.
Ball Joints and Dust Covers
Check the suspension and steering linkage ball joints for looseness
and damage. Check all dust covers for deterioration and damage.
Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts. A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Brake Lines and Hoses
Visually inspect for proper installation. Check for chafing, cracks, dete-
rioration and signs of leakage. Replace any deteriorated or damaged
parts. A qualified technician should perform these operations.
Brake Linings/Drums and Brake Pads/Discs
Check the brake linings (shoes) and drums for scoring, burning, fluid
leakage, broken parts and excessive wear. Check the pads for excessive
wear and the discs for runout, excessive wear and fluid leakage.
Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts. A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Differential Oil
Replace at specified intervals. When performing inspections, check
each component for signs of leakage. If you discover any leakage, have
it repaired by a qualified technician immediately.
