The braking system on a modem 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.
Your vehicle was designed and tested with top-quality
GM brake parts. 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 approved CM 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.

never have to add water to one of these. When it's time
for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom
battery. Get one that has
the
replacement number shown
on the original battery's label.
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.
