Dear Chevrolet Owner:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
General Motors has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in some 1987 Chevrolet Corsica and Beretta model vehicles.
These vehicles may have been produced with a secondary hood latch that may not be properly installed. Loss of the skid plate could lead to
disengagement of both the secondary and primary hood latches.
If the secondary hood latch and the primary latch were to disengage, the hood could unexpectedly open. If this were to occur while the vehicle was in
motion, the hood may contact the windshield, reducing the forward vision area of the driver and a vehicle crash could occur without prior warning.
Correction of this condition will consist of inspection, and if required, installation of a secondary latch skid plate and/or secondary latch skid plate
retaining screws.
Instructions for making this correction have been sent to your Chevrolet dealer. It is estimated that parts will be available to your dealer on May 29,
1987. The labor time necessary to perform this correction ranges from ten (10) to twenty (20) minutes depending on whether secondary skid plate
installation is required.
Your Chevrolet Dealer is best equipped to obtain parts and provide service to ensure your vehicle is corrected as promptly as possible. However, if you
take your vehicle to your dealer on the agreed service date, and they do not remedy this condition on that date or within five days, we recommend you
contact the nearest Chevrolet Branch Office, either in person or by telephone. The Branch Office will assist you and the dealer in getting your vehicle
corrected. The locations and telephone numbers of the Branch offices are listed in your Owner's Manual.
After contacting your dealer and the Branch Office, if you are still not satisfied that we have done our best to remedy this condition without charge and
within a reasonable time, you may wish to write the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 400 Seventh St.,
S.W., Washington, D.C. 20590 or call 800-424-9393 (Washington, D.C.
residents use 426-0123).
The enclosed owner reply card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of this card to your dealer will assist in making the necessary 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 safety and continued satisfaction with our
products.
