Getting to Know Your
Important Information about
Car Washes
Due to the SSR’s low profile tires and
flangeless wheel design, wheels and
tires may be damaged in car washes
that utilize track or rail systems. You
should consult with the manager of the
car wash to determine if the system
can accommodate SSR’s wheels and
tires prior to entering the car wash. To
avoid possible damage, use touchless
automatic car washes. Use only
GM–approved cleaners on your SSR.
See your Chevrolet dealer for details.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.
SSR Keys

the vehicle and turn the engine off. Wait
10 seconds and restart the engine. If the

below. If the light continues to flash,
follow the previous steps and see your
dealer for service as soon as possible.
If the Malfunction Indicator Light

your vehicle, remove and then reinstall
