Just as braking is essential to the driver's safety as well as
others, oil changes are essential to the vehicles safety in and of
itself. Without proper oil changes, dirt, deposits, even water
can get into engine parts where it isn't welcome, which will cause your
engine to worsen in terms of performance in the least severe cases. There is also the chance,
when oil levels become too low because of a leak, oil being burned, or a
number of other instances, that improper oil amounts will cause the
engine to seize up and discontinue working altogether.
And though
when you buy a new Chevrolet the chances are slim of these things
happening, having your oil changed at proper intervals of time and miles
can do the opposite: improve engine performance, improve
mileage, etc. So you see, the up and downsides are juxtaposed
yet joined in an equally urgent sense.

Information on Oil, Oil Changes, and it's Importance to your New or Leased Vehicle
GM Goodwrench Technicians are meticulously trained to know how your specific Chevrolet model uses oil. Thus, not only will you get great service and a great price (and of course a friendly smile), you get the added benefit of knowing that your GM Goodwrench Tech is hand selected to work on your Chevy Model; for no extra charge!
The GM Oil Life System: Most GM vehicles are now equipped with an Oil Life System, which senses the speed and engine temperature to continuously monitor operating conditions. This helps you and your Service Representative determine the optimum time for an oil change. Too late is bad for your car, but too soon costs you unnecessary money. The system is designed to monitor how you drive your vehicle, the climate of the vehicles usage, and precisely when it would be best to see your local Goodwrench man or woman. When you do, they will reset it; it's just that simple.
