OLDSMOBILE POLICY
Mechanical speedometers are warranted under the "New Car Limited Warranty". Units requiring repair during the warranty period must be sent to an
authorized AC-Delco Speedometer Service Center.
EXCHANGE PROGRAM
Many AC-Delco Service Centers offer an exchange program for 1988 speedometers in need of repair. However, prior approval of the owner to accept a
repaired unit must be obtained and noted on the repair order. The program is very helpful in reducing customer inconvenience.
Participation in the exchange program is voluntary on the part of the AC-Delco Service Center; therefore, all centers do not offer this service. Dealers
should check with their AC-Delco Service Center to see if the exchange program is available and if the specific speedometer required is available.
PROCEDURE
Whether repairing or obtaining an exchange unit, dealers should never refer the owner to the AC-Delco Service Center, but should handle the transaction
for the owner as follows:
^
Remove the unit to be repaired from the car, complete all red shaded areas of the Warranty Repair Claim (ACD 1078 A) and send the unit and all
five (5) copies of the completed form to the authorized AC-Delco Service/Exchange Center in your area. The information MUST be typewritten
on the ACD 1078 A form.
IMPORTANT:
SPEEDOMETERS MUST BE ASSEMBLED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE EXCHANGE PROGRAM WHEN AVAILABLE. THE
DEALER REQUESTING THE EXCHANGE WILL BE CHARGED FOR ANY MISSING AND/OR DAMAGED PARTS.
^
The repaired or exchanged speedometer will be returned to your dealership for installation in the owner's vehicle.

For details about the servicing of odometers, refer to the current Oldsmobile Service Policies and Procedures Manual.
