OWNER REIMBURSEMENT
Customers may request reimbursement for prior replacement of the ignition coil(s) due to misfire, rough idle, or a "no start" condition. Owners must
submit original documentation that reasonably confirms the amount of unreimbursed repair expenses, a description of the repair, the date of the repair,
and the person or entity who performed the repair to receive reimbursement.
Claims for customer reimbursement on previously paid repairs are to be submitted according to the Warranty Claim Information Instructions. Use the
"Owner Reimbursement" labor operation and list all owner expenses concerning previous repairs in the net items column of the warranty claim.
NOTE:
When a customer requests reimbursement, and the vehicle is still available, dealers are to inspect and, if necessary, replace ignition coils as called for in
the SERVICE PROCEDURE of this bulletin. If owner's documentation indicates that both coils were replaced using coils from kit P/N 10457062 (or two
P/N 10472748 coils), then Labor Op V6512 may be applied for and it is not necessary to physically inspect the involved vehicle. Until the involved
vehicle is confirmed to have the new coils installed (by inspection of the vehicle or the repair order, and any necessary replacement of coils performed),
the campaign must remain open regardless of any reimbursement.
