(1) Vehicles with different size front
and rear tires do not have tire
rotation. See Tire Rotation0323.
(2) Or every two years, whichever
comes first. More frequent passenger
compartment air filter replacement
may be needed if driving in areas with
heavy traffic, poor air quality, high
dust levels, or environmental
allergens. Passenger compartment air
filter replacement may also be needed
if there is reduced airf low, window
fogging, or odors. Your GM dealer can
help determine when to replace the

fluid will decrease the life of the
transfer case and/or axles and should
be replaced. (5)

may help to avoid future costly
repairs. To maintain vehicle

services may be required.
It is recommended that your dealer
perform these services —their trained
dealer technicians know your vehicle
best. Your dealer can also perform a
thorough assessment with a
multi-point inspection to recommend
when your vehicle may need
attention.
The following list is intended to
explain the services and conditions to
look for that may indicate services are
required.
Battery

start the engine and operate any
additional electrical accessories.

start the vehicle, maintain a battery
with full cranking power.
