Lubricate
Steering and Suspension
Lubricate chassis components. Lubricate the front suspension, steering linkage, transmission shift linkage, and parking brake cable guides. Control arm ball joints require lubrication but should not be lubricated unless their temperature is 10 degrees F (-12 degrees C) or higher, or they could be damaged. Vehicles used under severe commercial operating conditions require lubrication on a regular basis every 3,000 miles (5 000 km).
Inspect
Washer Fluid
Check windshield washer fluid level and add fluid as needed.
Vehicle
Visually check for any leaks or damage. A fluid loss in any vehicle system could indicate a problem. Have the system inspected and repaired and the fluid level checked. Add fluid if needed.
Coolant
Check engine coolant fluid level and add fluid as needed.
Brakes and Traction Control
Inspect Brake System. Visually inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface condition. Inspect other brake parts, including calipers, parking brake, etc.
Replace
Oil Filter, Engine
Engine Oil
Change engine oil and filter, or every 12 months whichever occurs first. Reset the oil life system.
Rotate
Tires
Rotate tires and check inflation pressures and wear.

- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
