Camaro V8-305 5.0L VIN E TBI (1989)
Dear Chevrolet Owner:
This notice is sent to inform you that Chevrolet Motor Division is conducting a recall campaign that includes your vehicle.
REASON FOR THIS RECALL
General Motors has determined that certain 1989-90 Chevrolet Camaro (IROC and RS models) equipped with convertible tops may have faulty
convertible top latch handles. These latch handles may loosen which could lead to latch disengagement when a twisting load is applied. Additionally, the
locating pins on the latch handles may fatigue and break. Either of these conditions may result in the front of the convertible top coming away from the
windshield frame.
WHAT WE WILL DO
To correct this condition, new latch handle assemblies will be installed with integral anti-ramp stops and improved stainless steel locating pins (with
flats). This service will be performed for you at no charge.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
Please contact your Chevrolet dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service date as the dealer may have to order parts in advance to perform the repair.
Instructions for making this correction have been sent to your dealer. Please ask your dealer if you wish to know how much time will be needed to
schedule, process and repair your vehicle.
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 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.
