ALL CHEVROLET DEALERS
Hood paint flaking or lack of adhesion may be experienced on some 1989 C/K trucks within the breakpoints listed. This condition was caused by an
improper galvanizing process. The flaking condition to bare metal will be most noticeable on the edges of the hood.
Hoods that were built within the suspected time period may be identified by the number 39 stamped in the right edge approximately 16 inches from the
front of the hood.
If paint flaking occurs on a hood with a number 39 stamped in the right edge and the VIN is within the breakpoints listed, the hood must be replaced and
refinished. Do not attempt to refinish the original hood.
VINs within the following breakpoints may be involved:
