your dealer immediately. Use of gasoline
with a lower than recommended octane
number can cause engine failure and may
void or not be covered by the New Vehicle

Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita -
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.
