THIS BULLETIN CANCELS AND SUPERSEDES DEALER SERVICE BULLETIN NO. 91-154-10, DATED JANUARY 1991. THE
INFORMATION HAS BEEN COMPLETELY REVISED. ALL COPIES OF 91-154-10 SHOULD BE DISCARDED.
Condition:
Wind noise/buffeting from roof area of vehicle.
Cause:
Roof rack cross rails
Correction:
Replace BOTH front and rear cross rails with new parts as outlined in the Service Manual.
IMPORTANT:
The rail assemblies MUST be replaced as a set due to the slight change in shape. Using an old rail with a new rail will not correct the
wind noise condition and may result in unacceptable appearance.
Part numbers are as follows:
Front:
10079694
Rear:
10079695
Parts are currently available from GMSPO.
IMPORTANT:Incorrect positioning of the new rails still has the potential to cause a buffeting noise. The correct position for the rails is either
completely together, or at least 200 mm (8 inches) apart.
Use published times.
