When a message on your instrument cluster reads "CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON", it is recommended to replace your oil within the next 600 miles.

Tire Replacement Information for the 2016–2019 Chevrolet Cruze

Your Chevy's tires serve as the sole contact points between your vehicle and the road, making their care essential for optimal driving performance. Regular tire rotations around every 7,500 miles promote more even tread wear, can help preserve fuel efficiency, and support stable handling.

It's important to visually examine your 2016–2019 Cruze's tires often. You should consider replacing them if the tread wear indicators become visible, you spot cuts or cracks in the sidewall, or there are bulges or splits in the tire structure. Excessive wear or uneven tread depth are also signs that new tires are needed.

Consult the information placard on the driver's door jamb, or ask the specialists at Firestone Complete Auto Care for the exact tire size for your specific trim.
