As part of regular maintenance, it is recommended to lubricate the hinges and latch assemblies on the doors, hood, and trunk of the vehicle. This should be done every 3000 miles or every three months to ensure smooth operation. Applying a few drops of light oil or lock lubricant to these components helps prevent rust and corrosion while promoting proper functioning. Additionally, it is advised to lubricate the door latch strikers with a thin coat of grease, which helps reduce wear and allows for unrestricted movement. As for the door and trunk locks, they should be lubricated with a spray-on graphite lubricant to maintain their performance and prevent sticking or seizing. By following these lubrication procedures, you can contribute to the longevity and reliability of the vehicle's door, hood, and trunk mechanisms.
