At new car delivery cleanup time, care must be taken to remove any weight marker sticker residue, paint, or chalk from tires and wheels. This residue can be easily removed with a cloth and a small portion of GM Tar and Road Oil Remover (P.N. 1050172) or equivalent. Failure to remove this residue during pre-delivery may result in permanent defacing of wheel or tire.
General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
