Using Your Maintenance Schedule
We at General Motors want to help you keep your
vehicle in good working condition. But we don’t know
exactly how you’ll drive it.
You
may drive very short
distances only a few times
a
week. Or
you
may drive
long distances all the time in very hot, dusty weather.
You
may use your vehicle in making deliveries. Or you
may drive it to work, to do errands or in many other
ways.
Because of all the different ways people
use
their GM
vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You may even need
more frequent checks and replacements than you’ll find
in the schedules in this section.
So
please read this
section and
note
how
you
drive. If
you
have any
questions on how to keep your vehicle in good
condition,
see
your Buick dealer.
This part tells you the maintenance services you should
have done and when you should schedule them.
If
you
go
to
your dealer for your service needs, you’ll know
that GM-trained and supported service people will
perform the work using genuine
GM
parts.
The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed in
Part
D.
Make sure whoever services your vehicle uses
these. All parts should be replaced and all necessary
repairs done before you
or
anyone else drives the
vehicle.
These schedules are for vehicles that:

Vehicle” in the Index.

Selecting the Right Schedule
First you’ll need
to
decide which
of
the
two schedules is
right for your vehicle. Here’s how to decide which
schedule
to
follow:
