The Tire Rotation and Required
Services are the responsibility of the
vehicle owner. It is recommended to
have your dealer perform these
services every 12 000 km/7,500 mi.
Proper vehicle maintenance helps to
keep the vehicle in good working
condition, improves fuel economy,
and reduces vehicle emissions.
Because of the way people use
vehicles, maintenance needs vary.
There may need to be more
frequent checks and services.
Normal Service
All maintenance services, including
those listed under Additional
Required Services, are for
vehicles that:
Carry passengers and cargo
within recommended limits on
the Tire and Loading Information
label. See Vehicle Load Limits
0 203.
Are driven on reasonable road
surfaces within legal driving
limits.
Use the recommended fuel. See
Fuel 0 243.

schedule, some vehicles require
service more often. Severe service
is for vehicles that are:
Mainly driven in heavy city traffic
in hot weather.
Mainly driven in hilly or
mountainous terrain.
Frequently towing a trailer.
Used for high-speed or
competitive driving.
Used for taxi, police, or delivery
