Tires

Every new GM vehicle has
high-quality tires made by a
leading tire manufacturer. See
the warranty manual for
information regarding the tire
warranty and where to get
service. For additional
information refer to the tire
manufacturer.
Warning
Poorly maintained and
improperly used tires are
dangerous.
Overloading the tires can
cause overheating as a
result of too much
flexing. There could be a
blowout and a serious
crash. See Vehicle Load
Limits 0 189.

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.

Vehicle Care
Warning (Continued)
Replace any tires that
have been damaged by
impacts with potholes,
curbs, etc.
Improperly repaired tires
can cause a crash. Only
the dealer or an
authorized tire 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.
See Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation 0 291 for
