WHAT SHOULD BE DONE
Now and then, make sure all your belts, buckles, latch plates, retractots, anchorages and
reminder systems are working properly. Look for any loose parts or damage. If you see anything
that might keep a restraint system from doing its job, have it repaired.
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering systenl for damaged, loose or missing parts,
signs of wear, or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering lines and hoses for proper
hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
Inspect the tires for uneven wear or damage. If there is irregular or premature wear, check the
wheel alignment. Inspect for damaged wheels.
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body near the exhaust system.
Look for broken,
damaged, missing or out-of-position parts as well as open seams, holes, loose connections, or
other conditions which could cause a heat build-up in the floor pan or could let exhaust fumes
into the vehicle. See "Engine Exhaust" in the Index.
