Warning
.
Poorly maintained and improperly
used tires are dangerous.
.
Overloading the tires can cause
overheating as a result of too
much flexing. There could be a
blowout and a serious crash. See
.
Underinflated tires pose the same
danger as overloaded tires. The
resulting crash could cause serious
injury. Check all tires frequently to
maintain the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure should be
checked when the tires are cold.
.
Overinflated tires are more likely
to be cut, punctured, or broken by
a sudden impact
—
such as when
hitting a pothole. Keep tires at the
recommended pressure.

Warning (Continued)
.
Worn or old tires can cause a
crash. If the tread is badly worn,
replace them.
.
Replace any tires that have been
damaged by impacts with
potholes, curbs, etc.
.
Improperly repaired tires can cause
a crash. Only your dealer or an
authorized tire service center
should repair, replace, dismount,
and mount the tires.

Do not spin the tires in excess of
56 km/h (35 mph) on slippery
surfaces such as snow, mud, ice,

the tires to explode.
All-Season Tires
This vehicle may come with all-season tires.
These tires are designed to provide good
overall performance on most road surfaces
and weather conditions. Original equipment
tires designed to GM's specific tire
performance criteria have a TPC specification
code molded onto the sidewall. Original
equipment all-season tires can be identified
by the last two characters of this TPC code,
which will be
“
MS.
”
Consider installing winter tires on the
vehicle if frequent driving on snow or
ice-covered roads is expected. All-season tires
provide adequate performance for most
winter driving conditions, but they may not
offer the same level of traction or
performance as winter tires on snow or
ice-covered roads. See
.
Winter Tires
This vehicle was not originally equipped
with winter tires. Winter tires are designed
for increased traction on snow and
ice-covered roads. Consider installing winter
tires on the vehicle if frequent driving on ice
or snow covered roads is expected. See your
dealer for details regarding winter tire
availability and proper tire selection. Also,
see
.
With winter tires, there may be decreased
dry road traction, increased road noise, and
shorter tread life. After changing to winter
tires, be alert for changes in vehicle
handling and braking.
