CAUTION:

Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly tightened
wheel nuts can cause the wheel to become loose
and even come off. This could lead to an accident.
Be sure to use the correct wheel nuts. If you have
to replace them, be sure to get new GM original
equipment wheel nuts.

Stop somewhere as soon as you can and have the
nuts tightened with a torque wrench to the
proper torque specification. See “Capacities and
Specifications” in the Index for the wheel nut
torque specification.

NOTICE:

Improperly tightened wheel nuts can lead to
brake pulsation and rotor damage. To avoid
expensive brake repairs, evenly tighten the wheel
nuts in the proper sequence and to the proper
torque specification. See “Capacities and
Specifications” in the Index for the wheel nut
torque specification.
