Warning (Continued)
however, use a scraper
or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the center of
the wheel hub with wheel
bearing grease after a
wheel change or tire
rotation to prevent
corrosion or rust build-up.
{Warning
Do not apply grease to
the wheel mounting
surface, wheel conical
seats, or the wheel nuts
or bolts. Grease applied
to these areas could
cause a wheel to become
loose or come off,
resulting in a crash.
When It Is Time for
New Tires
Factors, such as maintenance,
temperatures, driving speeds,
vehicle loading, and road
conditions affect the wear
rate of the tires.
Treadwear indicators are one
way to tell when it is time for
new tires. Treadwear
indicators appear when the
tires have only 1.6 mm (1/16 in)
or less of tread remaining. See
Tire Inspection 0429 and
Tire Rotation 0429. The rubber in tires ages over
time. This also applies to the
spare tire, if the vehicle has
one, even if it is never used.
Multiple factors including
temperatures, loading
conditions, and inflation
pressure maintenance affect
how fast aging takes place.
GM recommends that tires,
including the spare if
equipped, be replaced after six
years, regardless of tread
wear. To identify the age of a
tire, use the tire manufacture
date, which is the last four
digits of the DOT Tire
Identification Number (TIN)
molded into one side of the
tire sidewall. The last four
digits of the TIN indicate the
tire manufactured date. The
first two digits represent the
week and the last two digits,
the year. For example, the
third week of the year 2020
would have a 4-digit DOT date
of 0320. Week 01 is the first
full week (Sunday through
Saturday) of each year.

wheel firmly. Steer to maintain
lane position, and then gently
brake to a stop, well off the
road, if possible.
A rear blowout, particularly on
a curve, acts much like a skid
and may require the same
correction as used in a skid.
Stop pressing the accelerator
pedal and steer to straighten
the vehicle. It may be very
bumpy and noisy. Gently brake
to a stop, well off the road,
if possible.
The vehicle has no spare tire,
no tire changing equipment,
and no place to store a tire.
If the vehicle has run-flat tires,
there is no need to stop on
the side of the road to change
a flat tire. See Run-Flat Tires
0415.
If the vehicle has self-sealing
tires, see Self-Sealing Tires
0 415. Tread punctures
typically will not cause tires to
lose air. However, if the vehicle
does get a flat tire, there is no
spare tire, tire changing equipment, or place to store a
tire. Contact Roadside
Assistance for help.
{Warning
Driving on a flat tire will
cause permanent damage to
the tire. Re-inflating a tire
after it has been driven on
while severely underinflated
or flat may cause a blowout
and a serious crash. Never
attempt to re-inflate a tire
that has been driven on
while severely underinflated
or flat. Have your dealer or
an authorized tire service
center repair or replace the
flat tire as soon as possible.
{Warning
Special tools and
procedures are required to
service a run-flat tire.
If these special tools and
procedures are not used,
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
injury or vehicle damage may
occur. Always be sure the
proper tools and
procedures, as described in
the service manual,
are used.
If a tire goes flat, avoid further
tire and wheel damage by
driving slowly to a level place,
well off the road, if possible.
Turn on the hazard warning
flashers. See Hazard Warning
Flashers 0149.
This vehicle may come with a
tire sealant and compressor
kit. To use the tire sealant and
compressor kit, see Tire
Sealant and Compressor Kit
0 439.

Schedule
Tire Rotation and
Required Services Every
12 000 km (7,500 mi)
Tires are rotated to achieve a
more uniform wear for all tires.
The first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as
soon as possible, check for
proper tire inflation pressure,
and check for damaged tires
or wheels. If the unusual wear
continues after the rotation,
check the wheel alignment.
See When It Is Time for New
Tires0431 and
Wheel Replacement 0436.

Inspection. See Multi-Point
Vehicle Inspection (MPVI)
0472.

.Check engine oil level and oil
life percentage. If needed,
change engine oil and filter,
and reset oil life system. Or
when the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message displays,
have the engine oil and filter
changed within the next
1 000 km/600 mi. If driven
under the best conditions,
the engine oil life system
may not indicate the need
for vehicle service for up to
a year. The engine oil and
filter must be changed at
least once a year and the oil
life system must be reset.
Your trained dealer
technician can perform this
work. If the engine oil life
system is reset accidentally,
service the vehicle within
5 000 km/3,000 mi since the
last service. Reset the oil life system when the oil is
changed. See Engine Oil Life
System
0381.
.When the REPLACE AT
NEXT OIL CHANGE
message displays, the engine
air filter should be replaced
at the next engine oil
change. When the REPLACE
ENGINE AIR FILTER SOON
message displays, the engine
air filter should be replaced
at the earliest convenience.
Reset the engine air filter life
system after the engine air
filter is replaced. See Engine
Air Filter Life System 0383.
Every 36 000 km (22,500 mi)
.Passenger compartment air
filter replacement (or every
24 months, whichever
occurs first). More frequent
replacement may be needed
if the vehicle is driven in
areas with heavy traffic,
poor air quality, areas with
high dust levels or are
sensitive to environmental
allergens. Filter replacement

Severe Conditions
Requiring More Frequent
Maintenance*
.Public service, military,
or commercial use vehicles
to include the following:
‐Ambulances, police cars,
and emergency rescue
vehicles.
‐ Civilian vehicles such as
light duty pick-up trucks,
SUVs, and passenger cars
that are used in military
applications.
‐ Recovery vehicles such as
tow trucks and flatbed
single vehicle carriers or
any vehicle that is
consistently used in towing
trailers or other loads.
‐ High use commercial
vehicles such as courier
delivery vehicles, private
security patrol vehicles,
or any vehicles that
operate on a 24–hour
basis. ‐
Any vehicle consistently
operated in a high sand or
dust environment such as
those used on oil pipelines
and similar applications.
.Vehicles that are regularly
used for short trips of 6 km
(4 mi) or less.
The oil life indicator will show
you when to change the oil
and filter. Under severe
conditions the indicator may
come on before 12 000 km
(7,500 mi).
* Footnote: Under extreme
driving conditions listed
above, it may be necessary
to replace your spark plugs
at more frequent intervals.
For further assistance in
determining the most
suitable service maintenance
intervals for your vehicle,
please contact your
authorized GM Dealer. Extreme service is for
vehicles mainly driven
off-road in four-wheel drive
or used in farming, mining,
forestry, or snow plowing.Additional Required

.Change automatic
transmission fluid and filter.
.Change transfer case fluid,
if equipped with AWD. Do
not directly power wash the
transfer case and/or front/
rear axle output seals. High
pressure water can
overcome the seals and
contaminate the transfer
case fluid. Contaminated
fluid will decrease the life of
the transfer case and/or
axles and should be
replaced.
