Tire Inspection And Rotation - Pontiac G3 2009 Owner's Manual

Tire Inspection and Rotation

We recommend that you regularly inspect your
vehicle's tires, including the spare tire, for signs
of wear or damage. See When It Is Time for
New Tires on page 5-63 for more information.
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km). See Additional Required
Services on page 6-6.
The purpose of a regular tire rotation is to achieve
a uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. This will
ensure that your vehicle continues to perform most
like it did when the tires were new.
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your tires
as soon as possible and check wheel alignment.
Also check for damaged tires or wheels. See When
It Is Time for New Tires on page 5-63 and Wheel
Replacement on page 5-68 for more information.
