"GM of Canada" dealers require prior District Service Manager approval in order to replace the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) in vehicles without daytime backlit IPCs for the purpose of customer satisfaction.
The purpose of this bulletin is to inform dealership personnel that they may encounter new 2008 trucks with or without daytime backlighting of the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC). Some early production vehicles may have an IPC without daytime backlighting. A production change was made and all later production vehicles will have an IPC with daytime backlighting. This production change may result in the dealership having a mixture of vehicles in their inventory, some with and others without IPC daytime backlighting. The vehicles with non daytime backlit IPCs are good saleable units that meet all requirements. The IPCs should not be replaced in vehicles without daytime backlit IPCs unless there is a significant customer dissatisfaction with the IPC visibility.
