Rear Wiper Blade Replacement
To remove the wiper blade:1. Lift the wiper arm away from the window. The rear wiper arm will only lift
off the glass at a small angle to allow
for wiper blade removal. The rear wiper
arm will not lock in a service up position
so care should be taken when replacing
the rear wiper blade.
2. Push the release lever to disengage thehook and push the wiper arm toward the
center of the vehicle and out of the
blade assembly.
3. Push the new blade assembly securely on the wiper arm until the release lever
clicks into place.
Windshield Replacement
Driver Assistance Systems
If the windshield needs to be replaced and
the vehicle is equipped with a front camera
sensor for the Driver Assistance Systems, a
GM replacement windshield is
recommended. The replacement windshield
must be installed according to GM
specifications for proper alignment. If it is
not, these systems may not work properly,
they may display messages, or they may
not work at all. See your dealer for proper
windshield replacement.
Gas Strut(s)
This vehicle is equipped with gas strut(s) to
provide assistance in lifting and holding
open the hood/trunk/liftgate system in full
open position.
{Warning
If the gas struts that hold open the hood,
trunk, and/or liftgate fail, you or others
could be seriously injured. Take the
vehicle to your dealer for service
immediately. Visually inspect the gas
struts for signs of wear, cracks, or other
damage periodically. Check to make sure
the hood/trunk/liftgate is held open with
enough force. If struts are failing to hold
the hood/trunk/liftgate, do not operate.
Have the vehicle serviced.
Caution
Do not apply tape or hang any objects
from gas struts. Also do not push down
or pull on gas struts. This may cause
damage to the vehicle.
