Dear Buick Owner:
This notice is to inform you Buick Motor Division is initiating a recall campaign that includes your vehicle.
REASON FOR RECALL
General Motors has determined some 1989 Buick Skylark model vehicles with the 3300 V6 engine and air conditioning were built with a "Mem-cal" in
the Engine Control Module which allows the Air Conditioning Compressor to operate at low system pressures during low ambient temperatures or when
there is a loss of freon. This operation will eventually cause the compressor to fail due to the lack of proper internal lubrication.
WHAT WE WILL DO
To prevent this from occurring on your vehicle, your Buick dealer will replace the Mem-cal in the Engine Control Module (ECM). This service will be
completed for you at no charge.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
Please contact your Buick dealer to arrange a service date prior to severe cold weather to avoid damage to your air conditioning compressor. Instructions
have been sent to your dealer. The labor time to perform the work is about twenty
(20) minutes. Please allow additional time for your dealer to process your vehicle.
The enclosed Owner Reply Card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of the card to your dealer will assist in making the correction in the shortest
possible time. If you have sold or traded your vehicle, please let us know by completing the postage-paid Owner Reply Card and returning it to us.
We are sorry to cause you this inconvenience; however, we have taken this action in the interest of your continued satisfaction with our products.
