frequently, brake fluid may require replacement more often.
Visually inspect hoses and have them replaced if they are cracked, swollen, or deteriorated.
Inspect all pipes, fittings, and clamps; replace with genuine parts if needed. To help ensure
13
correct operation, a pressure test of the cooling system and pressure cap and cleaning the
outside of the radiator and air conditioning condenser is recommended.
Make sure the safety belt reminder light and safety belt assemblies are working correctly. Look
for any other loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If you see anything that might keep a
14
safety belt system from doing its job, have it repaired. Ensure any torn or frayed safety belts
are replaced.
Lubricate all key lock cylinders, door hinges and latches, hood hinges and latches, and trunk
lid hinges and latches. More frequent lubrication may be required when exposed to a corrosive
16
environment. Applying silicone grease on weatherstrips with a clean cloth will make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak.
Change automatic transmission fluid and filter if the vehicle is mainly driven under one or more
of these conditions:
General for auto • In heavy city traffic where the outside temperature regularly reaches 90F (32C) or higher.
