TO: ALL GENERAL MOTORS DEALERS
General Motors of Canada Limited has decided that some 1996 Chevrolet Cavalier, Corsica, Beretta, and S10, GMC Sonoma and Pontiac Sunfire
models equipped with the 2.2L (RPO LN2) VIN Engine Code 4 were built with some fuel injectors that may have been subjected to a stress of the plastic
encapsulant. After an extended period of time and mileage, the fuel injectors in some of these vehicles may exhibit leakage of fuel vapor that may cause
the vehicle to be out of compliance with evaporative emission standards.
To prevent this condition from occurring, dealers are to inspect the date codes of fuel injectors on the affected vehicles and if necessary, replace any fuel
injectors with involved date codes.
