General Motors has determined that some 1989 Oldsmobile Delta 88 model vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard (FMVSS) 301, "Fuel System Integrity". The fuel rollover valve assembly may not have been installed on the affected vehicles. In the event of
an accident and the vehicle becomes inverted, a missing fuel rollover valve assembly could allow fuel spillage in excess of the amount prescribed by
FMVSS 301. Fuel spillage during and after an accident could result in a fire.
