Dealer, Vehicle, Owner and Parts Information
DEALER ACTIONTo correct this condition, dealers are to determine if the light is present and, if required, install the omitted light in the instrument cluster of vehicles involved.
Dealers are to service all vehicles subject to this campaign at no charge to the owner, regardless of mileage, age of vehicle, or ownership, from this time forward.
Whenever a vehicle subject to this campaign is taken into your new or used vehicle inventory, or it is in your dealership for service in the future, you should take the steps necessary to be sure the campaign correction has been made before reselling or releasing the vehicle.
Owners of vehicle recently sold, from your new vehicle inventory, are to be contacted by the dealer and arrangements made to make the required modification according to instructions contained in this bulletin.
VEHICLES INVOLVED
Certain 1985 Electras equipped with 4.3L (VIN Code T) diesel engines with VIN's from F1404814 through and including F1427964.
DEALER MATERIAL
If your dealership has vehicles involved in this campaign, you will receive the following items:
^ List of all vehicles involved in this campaign shipped to your dealership.
^ One campaign identification label for each vehicle.
Involved vehicles have been identified by Vehicle Identification Number computer listings. Computer listings contain the complete Vehicle Identification Number, owner name and address data, and are furnished to the involved dealers with the campaign bulletin. Owner name and address data furnished will enable dealers to follow up with owners involved in this campaign.
These listings may contain owners' names and addresses obtained from State Motor Vehicle Registration records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any other purpose is a violation of law in several states. Accordingly, you are urged to limit the use of this listing to the follow-up necessary to complete this campaign.
OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners of vehicles involved in this campaign will be notified by Buick Motor Division (see copy of owner letter included with this bulletin).
CHANGE OF OWNER INFORMATION
Dealers are to use the Dealer Communication System (D.C.S.) to provide Buick Motor Division with subsequent Buick owner information. By reporting a change of owner name or address of a vehicle in campaign status over the D.C.S., the need to send in a C.V.A.R. form for that vehicle is eliminated. Terminal input instructions are covered in the D.C.S. Manual under Section 9, page 9-J01A and B.
