2 Questions: 1LT or 2LT? Talk to dealer for tire wear issue?
I bought a certified HHR LT, I don't know if it's 1LT or 2LT, the dealer does not either. Is there a code somewhere in the car to identify the trim level?

I just noticed the rear passenger side tire has twice as much wear as the others have. Since I only put less than 3000 miles on it, this problem must exist before I bought it. If it's a new car, the dealer must take care of it for free; but since it's used, will the dealer do that too?

Thanks.

Is it a 2.2 or a 2.4 motor?

Look at the plaque in the glove box for RPO code

Code FE3......sport suspension, only available on 2LTs.
Code FE1......touring suspension, LS/1LT.

I saw FE3.
AFAIK, 1LT can be upgraded to 17' wheels, for which sport suspension must be installed. Maybe I am wrong.

No, the sport suspension is only available on the 2LT.

Then, mine is 2LT. But does 2007 2LT not come with running boards?

Nope. Running boards are optional on 06-08 models. Optional on 09 LS and 1LT. Standard on 09 2LT.

Close, but no cigar. Running boards became standard on 2LTs for the 08 model year. (Canadian rules do not apply here)
