Owners will be notified of this campaign on their vehicles by Chevrolet Motor Division (see copy of owner letter included with this bulletin). A listing of
owner names and addresses will NOT be furnished to involved dealers.
DEALER CAMPAIGN RESPONSIBILITY
Since a new dipstick can be easily installed, for the owners convenience, a new dipstick, along with installation instructions and a new owner's manual
page insert, will be sent directly to owners of record. Owners may install the dipstick or they may ask a dealer to perform the service.
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. Dealers are to correct all affected vehicles in new and used vehicle stock prior to their sale.
Whenever a vehicle subject to this campaign is taken into your new or used vehicle inventory, or it is in your dealership for service in the future, you
should take the steps necessary to ensure the campaign correction has been made before reselling or releasing the vehicle.
PARTS INFORMATION
A new lock-seal fluid level indicator (dipstick), installation instructions and instructions for checking the transmission fluid level will be mailed to
owners of record by Chevrolet Motor Division on a no charge basis.
If additional transmission fluid level indicators are required, they should be obtained from General Motors Service Parts Operations (GMSPO). To
ensure these parts will be obtained as soon as possible, they should be ordered from GMSPO on a "C.I.O." order with no special instruction code, but on
an advise code (2).
