Dear Buick Owner:
General Motors has determined that certain 1987 Centurys, LeSabre, Somersets, and Skylarks equipped with 3.0L or 3.8L port fuel injected engines may
be equipped with a mass air flow sensor containing cracked sensor foils. The mass air flow sensor which is part of the engine's fuel and emission system
may fail, resulting in poor driveability and may affect exhaust emissions.
To correct this condition, your dealer will inspect and replace, if required, the mass air flow sensor on your vehicle. This service will be performed at no
charge to you.
Instructions for this service have been sent to your Buick dealer. The labor time necessary to perform this modification is approximately 10 minutes.
Please allow time for the dealer to process your vehicle. Please contact your dealer to arrange a mutually satisfactory service date.
The enclosed Owner Reply Card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of this card to your dealer will assist him in making the repair to your vehicle in the
shortest possible time. If you have sold or traded your vehicle bearing the identification number on this card, please let us know by completing the
postage paid Owner Identification Reply Card and returning it to us so that we may update our records. Should your dealer not schedule a service date
within a reasonable time, you should contact the Buick Customer Assistance Department, Flint Home Office by calling 800-521-7300.
We are sorry to cause you this inconvenience; however, we have taken this action to assure that your vehicle meets applicable government emission
requirements, and in the interest of your continued satisfaction with our products. We urge your prompt cooperation in this matter.
