Dealer, Owner and Parts Information
DEALER MATERIAL
If your dealership has vehicles involved in this campaign, you will receive the following items:
^
List of all vehicles involved that were assigned to your dealership.
^
One (1) Campaign Identification Label per vehicle involved.
Involved vehicles have been identified by Vehicle Identification Number computer listings. Computer listings may contain the complete vehicle
identification number, owner name and address data, and are furnished to the involved dealer with the campaign bulletin. Owner name and address data
will enable dealers to follow-up with owners involved in this campaign.
These computer listings may contain owner names and addresses obtained from State Motor Vehicle Registration Records. The use of such motor
vehicle registration data for any other purpose is a violation of law in several states. Accordingly, you are urged to limit the use of this listing to the
follow-up necessary to complete this campaign.
DEALER CAMPAIGN RESPONSIBILITY
All unsold new vehicles in dealers' possession and subject to the campaign MUST be held and inspected/repaired per the service procedure of this
campaign bulletin BEFORE owners take possession of these vehicles.
Dealers are to service all vehicles subject to this campaign at no charge to owners, regardless of mileage, age of vehicle, or ownership, from this time
forward.
Owners of vehicles recently sold from your new vehicle inventory with no owner information indicated on the dealer listing are to be contacted by the
dealer, and arrangements made to make the required correction according to the instructions contained in this bulletin. This could be done by mailing to
such owners a copy of the owner letter accompanying this bulletin. Campaign follow-up cards should not be used for this purpose, since the owner may
not as yet have received the notification letter.
In summary, whenever a vehicle subject to this campaign enters your vehicle inventory, or is in your dealership for service in the future, please take the
steps necessary to be sure the campaign correction has been made before selling or releasing the vehicle.
OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners will be notified of this campaign on their vehicles by Buick Motor Division (see copy of owner letter included with this bulletin).
CHANGE OF OWNER INFORMATION
Dealers are to use the Dealer Communication System (D.C.S.) to provide Buick Motor Division with subsequent Buick owner information. By reporting
a change of owner name or address of a vehicle in campaign status over the D.C.S., the need to send a C.V.A.R. form for that vehicle is eliminated.
Terminal input instructions are covered in the D.C.S. Manual under Section 9, Page 9-J01A and B.
