Warning (Continued)
•
Ov
erloading the tires can cause
overheating as aresult of too much
flexing. There could be ablowout
and a serious crash. See Vehicle Load
Limits 3160.
•
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
asudden impact — such as when
hitting apothole. Keep tires at the
recommended pressure.
•
Worn or old tires can cause
acrash. If the tread is badly worn,
replace them.

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
c
riteria have aTPC specification code molded
onto the sidewall.
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
3250.
Winter Tires
This vehicle was not originally equipped with
winter tires. Winter tires are designed for
increased traction on snow and ice-covered
roads. Consider installing winter tires on the
vehicle if frequent driving on ice or snow
covered roads is expected. See your dealer for
details regarding winter tire availability and
proper tire selection. Also, see Buying New Tires
3262.
With winter tires, there may be decreased
dry road traction, increased road noise, and
shorter tread life. After changing to winter
tires, be alert for changes in vehicle handling
and braking.
