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 will find in the schedules in this part. So please read this part and note how you drive. If you have any questions on how to keep your vehicle in good condition, see your Chevrolet dealer, the place many GM owners choose to have their maintenance work done. Your dealer can be relied upon to use proper parts and practices.

How This Part Is Organized The remainder of this part is divided into five sections: “Section A: Scheduled Maintenance Services” shows what to have done, and how often. Some of these services can be complex, so unless you are technically qualified and have the necessary equipment, you should let your dealer’s service department or another qualified service center do these jobs.

CAUTION: 1 Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be - L dangerous. In trying to do some jobs, you can be seriously injured. Do your own maintenance work only if you have the required know-how and the proper tools and equipment for the job. If you have any doubt, have a qualified technician do the work.

If you are skilled enough to do some work on your vehicle, you will probably want to get the service information GM publishes. You will find a list of publications and how to get them later in this manual. See “Service Publications” in the Index. “Section B: Owner Checks and Services” tells you what should be checked whenever you stop for fuel. It also explains what you can easily do to help keep your vehicle good condition. “Section C: Periodic Maintenance Inspections” explains important inspections that your Chevrolet dealer’s service department or another qualified service center should perform.

Customer Satisfaction Procedure

Your satisfaction and goodwill are important to your dealer and Chevrolet. Normally, any concerns with the sales transaction or the operation of your vehicle will be resolved by your dealer’s Sales or Service Departments. Sometimes, however, despite the best intentions of all concerned, misunderstandings can occur. If your concern has not been resolved to your satisfaction, the following steps should be taken: STEP ONE: Discuss your concern with a member of dealership management. Complaints can often be quickly resolved

at that level. If the matter has already been reviewed with the Sales, Service, or Parts Manager, contact the owner of the dealership or the General Manager. STEP TWO: If after contacting a member of Dealership Management, it appears your concern cannot be resolved by the dealership without further help, contact the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center by calling 1-800-222- 1020. In Canada, contact GM of Canada Customer Assistance Center in Oshawa by calling 1-800-263-3777 (English) or 1-800-263-7854 (French). In Mexico,

call (525) 254-3777. In Puerto Rico or U.S. Virgin Islands, call 1-809-763- 13 15. In all other overseas locations, contact GM International Export Sales in Canada by calling 1-4 16-644-4 1 12.

GM Participation in Better Business Bureau MediationlArbitration Program*

General Motors reserves the right to change eligibility limitations and/or to discontinue its participation in this program, Our experience has shown that the Customer Satisfaction Procedure described earlier in this part has been very successful in achieving customer satisfaction. However, if you have not been substantially satisfied, Chevrolet wants you to be aware of GM's voluntary participation in a no-charge

mediation/arbitration program called BBB AUTO LINE. This progmm is administered by the Council of Better Business Bureaus through local Better Business Bureaus. The program can resolve individual disputes involving vehicle repairs and the interpretation of your New Vehicle Limited Warranty. We prefer that you not resort to BBB AUTO LINE until after a final decision is made under the Customer Satisfaction Procedure. However, you may file a claim at any time by contacting your local Better Business Bureau (BBB) at the following toll-free number: 1-800-955-5 100. For further information

about filing a claim. you may also write to: BBB AUTO LINE Council of Better Business Bureaus 4200 Wilson Boulevard Suite 800 Arlington. VA 22203 In order to file a claim, you will have to provide your name and address, the vehicle identification number (VIN) of your vehicle. and a statement of the nature of your complaint. BBB staff may try to help resolve your dispute through mediation. If mediation is not successful. or if you do not wish to participate i n

mediation, eligible customers may present their case to an impartial third-party arbitrator at an informal hearing. The arbitrator will render a decision in your case, which you may accept or reject. If you accept a valid arbitrator decision. GM will be bound by that decision. The entire dispute settlement process should ordinarily take about 40 days from the time you file your complaint to the time a decision is rendered (or 47 days if you did not first contact your dealer or Chevrolet). We encourage you to use this program before or instead of resorting to the courts. We believe it offers advantages over courts in most jurisdictions because it is fast. free of charge, and informal

(lawyers are not usually present, although you may retain one at your expense if you choose). Arbitrators make decisions based on the principles of fairness and equity. and are not required to duplicate the functions of courts by strictly applying state or federal law. If you wish to go to court. however, we do not require that you first file a claim with BBB AUTO LINE** unless state law provides otherwise. Whatever your preference may be, remember that if you are unhappy with the results of BBB AUTO LINE, you can still go to courl because an arbitrator's decision is binding on GM but not on you, unless you accept it.

Eligibility is limited by vehicle age/mileage and other factors. For further information concerning the program, call the BBB at 1-800-955-5100. You may also call the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center. '%This program may not be available in all states. depending on state law. Canadian owners refer to your warranty booklet.

**Some states may require that you file a

claim with BBB AUTO LINE before resorting to state-operated procedures (including court).

Others describe a quicker way to fix your vehicle. They can help a technician service your vehicle better. Most bulletins apply to conditions affecting a small number of cars or trucks

Your Chevrolet dealer or a qualified technician may have to determine if a specific bulletin applies to your vehicle.

Individual PSP’s If you don’t want to buy all the PSP’s issued by Chevrolet for all car or truck models in the model year, you can buy individual PSP’s, such as those which may pertain to a particular model. To do this, you will first need to see our index of PSP’s. It provides a variety of information. Here’s what you’ll find in the index and how you can get one:

What You’ll Find in the Index: 0 A list of all PSP’s published by

Chevrolet in a model year (1989 or later). PSP’s covering all models of Chevrolet cars or light trucks (less than 10,000 pounds (4 536 kg) GVWR) are listed in the same index. 0 Ordering information so you can buy

the specific PSP’s you may want.

0 Price information for the PSP’s you

may want to buy.

How You Can Get an Index: Indexes are published periodically. Most of the PSP’s which could potentially apply to the most recent Chevrolet model: j,

Customer Assistance Information

will be listed in the most recent publication for that model year. This means you may want to wait until the end of the model year before ordering an index, if you are interested in buying PSP’s pertaining to a current model year car or truck. Some PSP’s pertaining to a particular model year vehicle may be published in later years, and these would be listed in the later year’s index. When you order an index for a model year that is not over yet, we’ll send you the most recently published issue. Check the ordering form for indexes for earlier model years.

Cut out the ordering form, fill it out, and mail it in. We will then see to it that an index is mailed to you. There is no charge for indexes for the 1989- 1993 model years. Toll-Free Telephone Number I f you want an additional ordering form for an index, just call toll-free and we’ll be happy to send you one. Automated recording equipment will take your name and mailing address. The number to call is 1-800-55 1-4 123.

A VERY IMPORTANT REMINDER: These PSP’s are meant for technicians. They are not meant for the “do-it-yourselfer.” Technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job quickly and safely.
