The recall # 281T Supplement Notification dated March, 1990 applied to specific 1989 and 1990 model year vehicles built through February 11,
1990. The service action is now being extended to include those 1990 model year vehicles built from February 12, 1990 through the end of 1990
model year production.
As in the March, 1990 Supplement Notification, only those additional 1990 model year vehicles operating in frigid climate regions are involved.
Refer to the attached dealer notification letter for a listing of the involved states.

Two new parts packages have been released for this recall. These new packages contain the oil cooler hoses already assembled to the bypass valve.
With the new valve and hose assemblies, it is no longer necessary to cut the existing hoses to install the valve. Simply remove the existing
transmission-to-cooler hoses and install the new valve and hose assembly in their place.
The new parts packages, and the previous package (PN C3940361), are to be used for the following applications:
-
New package, PN C3940405, is to be used only for 1989 and 1990 AC and AY-B cars.
