Cylinder Head Gasket: Recalls
Owner and Parts Information
OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners will be notified of this special policy on their vehicles by Buick Motor Division (see copy of the owner letter included with this bulletin).
OWNER REIMBURSEMENT
Customer claims for reimbursement on previously paid repairs to replace the cylinder head gasket as a result of the gasket leaking coolant into cylinders,
are to be submitted by June 30, 1993 (this time limitation may be longer depending upon the law in some states, such as Virginia, Connecticut, and
Wisconsin). Repairs must have occurred within six years of the date the vehicle was originally placed in service, or 60,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
Owners (and/or prior owners) must submit original documentation which reasonably confirms the amount of unreimbursed repair expense(s), a
description of the repair, date of the repair, and the person or entity performing the repair. Customers from the states of Connecticut, Virginia, and
Wisconsin must submit requests for reimbursement directly to Buick per instructions in the owner letter.
PARTS INFORMATION
To ensure parts are obtained as soon as possible, order them from General Motors Service Parts Operations (GMSPO) on a C.I.O. order, with NO
special instruction code, but order on an advise code (2).
