WARNING (Continued)
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.
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.

WARNING (Continued)
Improperly repaired tires can
cause a crash. Only the

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, etc.
Excessive spinning may
cause 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
I n f o r ma t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :
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 on page 10 40.
