MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE: WHAT TO CHECK AND WHEN

interval schedule with general guidelines for the
regular maintenance of passenger cars, minivans,
pick-ups and SUVs.
CHECK FREQUENTLY
This schedule is customary for the majority of drivers and
vehicles. However, always consult your owner's manual for
specific recommendations from your vehicle manufacturer.
