Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex. Its
many parts have to be of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle is to have really good braking.
Vehicles we design and test have top-quality GM brake
parts in them, as your Buick does when it is new. When
you
replace parts of your braking system -- for example,
when your brake linings wear down and you have to
have new ones put in -- be sure you get new genuine
GM replacement parts. If you don't, your brakes may no
longer work properly. For example, if someone puts in
brake linings that are wrong for your vehicle, the
balance between your front and rear brakes can change,
for the worse. The braking performance you've come to
expect can change in many other ways if someone puts
in the wrong replacement brake parts.
Battery
Every new Buick has a Delco Freedoms battery. You
never have to add water to one of these. When it's time
for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedoms
battery. Get one that has the catalog number shown on
the original battery's label.
Vehicle Storage
If you're not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days or
more, take off the black, negative
(-)
cable from the
battery. This will help keep your battery from running
down.
