Lubricating Body Components

~1min read

All moving body parts, such as the door and hood latches and hinges, should be lubricated every time the engine oil is changed.

In low temperatures, use anti-freeze lubricant for the latches.

Make sure the secondary hood latch prevents the hood from opening when the primary latch is released.
