NOTICE:
This bulletin is being reissued to eliminate the illustration that was printed in error on 88-3-3. Please discard 88-3-3 and replace it with this
one.
If an owner of a 1988 LeSabre with base P205/7514 tires expresses a concern of ride harshness or lack of ride comfort due to suspension hardness,
which cannot be corrected with normal service procedures; the cold tire pressure may be lowered to 30 psi (210 kpa) from the tire placard recommended
35 psi (240 kpa) pressure. The dealer is to inform the owner that 30 psi is recommended for improved ride and is adequate to meet all applicable Federal
Motor Vehicle standards, including wear and GVMR loading. The owners manual cautions on high speed applications still applies.
This bulletin applies only to the base LeSabre P205/7514 tire which is the only tire using 35 psi. Both the 15" and 16" tires use 30 psi as recommended
tire placard pressure.
