Dealer Obligations, Technical Instructions and Parts Requirements Information

DEALER OBLIGATIONS:

Dealers are obligated to perform this recall service promptly following presentation of the vehicles by the owners. United States law requires that we advise owners in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and certain territories of the procedure to be followed by them in informing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, if the defect is not corrected without charge within a reasonable time after the vehicle is brought in. This notice is included in the owner letter (copy attached) to be sent to owners in Puerto Rico, Virgin
Islands, American Samoa, Canal Zone, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. It is also important, however, that you promptly report (to your supervising location or Wixom) any instances in which an owner will not allow you to complete this recall because of objections to delays in scheduling, or for any other reason.

TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Park the vehicle. Turn the engine OFF. Set the parking brake.

2. Raise the engine hood and position the support rod.
