Campaign - Mislabeled Fuse Block: Overview


9235BUICK01

Model Year 1992

Bulletin No. 92-C-12

File in Group 8

Number 25

Date June '92


SUBJECT:
MISLABELED FUSE BLOCK AND INCORRECT OWNER'S MANUAL FUSE SPECIFICATIONS

MODELS AFFECTED:
CERTAIN 1992 ROADMASTERS


This is a Customer Satisfaction Product Improvement. Dealers need not follow-up with owners. Dealers should install labels on involved vehicles in their inventory and those where the customer requests the dealers' assistance. Campaign follow-up lists (after initial mailing) and ranking information will not be maintained.

General Motors has determined that certain 1992 Buick Roadmaster model vehicles may have been assembled with mislabeled fuse blocks and/or owner's manuals which state the incorrect fuse specifications. Although these vehicles were assembled with the correct fuses, subsequent fuse replacements based on incorrect information could result in inadequate circuit protection or repeated fuse failures.

To prevent this condition from occurring, owners of involved vehicles will be sent a new fuse block label and, if applicable, a new fuse usage specification insert for the owner's manual. Since these materials can easily be installed, and to reduce owner inconvenience, owners will be provided instructions to allow them to correct this condition themselves. However, if they desire, owners are being given the option to have the materials installed by their dealers at no charge.
