GMC Terrain: Wheels and Tires / Tire Chains
Warning
Do not use tire chains. There is
not enough clearance. Tire chains
used on a vehicle without the
proper amount of clearance can
cause damage to the brakes,
suspension, or other vehicle
parts. The area damaged by the
tire chains could cause loss of
control and a crash.
Use another type of traction
device only if its manufacturer
recommends it for the vehicle's
tire size combination and road
conditions. Follow that
manufacturer's instructions. To
avoid vehicle damage, drive slow
and readjust or remove the
traction device if it contacts the
vehicle. Do not spin the wheels.
If traction devices are used, install
them on the front tires.
Replace any wheel that is bent,
cracked, or badly rusted or
corroded. If wheel nuts keep coming
loose, the wheel, wheel bolts, and
wheel nuts should be replaced...
It is unusual for a tire to blow out
while driving, especially if the tires
are maintained properly. See Tires. If air goes out of a tire, it is
much more likely to leak out slowly...
Other information:
The engine air cleaner/filter is in the
engine compartment on the
passenger side of the vehicle. See
Engine Compartment Overview.
When to Inspect the Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
For intervals on changing and
inspecting the engine air cleaner/filter, see Maintenance Schedule...
