You can be injured and your vehicle could be
damaged if you try to
do
service work on a
vehicle without knowing enough about it.
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, the proper replacement parts
and tools before you attempt any vehicle
maintenance task.
Be sure to use the
proper
nuts, bolts and
other fasteners. “English” and (‘metric”
fasteners can be easily confused.
If
you use
the
wrong
fasteners, parts
can
later
break
or
fall
off. You could be hurt.
Adding Equipment
to
the Outside
of
Your
Vehicle
Things you might add to the outside
of
your vehicle
can
affect the airflow around it. This may cause wind noise
and affect windshield washer performance. Check with
your Pontiac dealer before adding equipment
to
the
outside
of
your vehicle.
