9. Put the wheel nuts back on with

the rounded end of the nuts
toward the wheel. Tighten each
wheel nut by hand until the
wheel is held against the hub.

10. Lower the vehicle by

turning the jack handle
counterclockwise.
Lower the jack completely.

WARNING

Wheel nuts that are not tight can
work loose. If all the nuts on a
wheel come off, the wheel can
come off the vehicle, causing a
crash. All wheel nuts must be
properly tightened. Follow the
rules in this section to be sure
they are.

{

WARNING

If wheel studs are damaged, they
can break. If all the studs on a
wheel broke, the wheel could
come off and cause a crash.
If any stud is damaged because
of a loose-running wheel, it
could be that all of the studs
are damaged.

WARNING (Continued)

To be sure, replace all studs on
the wheel. If the stud holes in a
wheel have become larger, the
wheel could collapse in operation.
Replace any wheel if its stud
holes have become larger or
distorted in any way. Inspect hubs
and hub‐piloted wheels for
damage. Because of loose
running wheels, piloting pad
damage may occur and require
replacement of the entire hub, for
proper centering of the wheels.
When replacing studs, hubs,
wheel nuts or wheels, be sure to
use GM original equipment parts.
