Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

Owner Letter

Dear Chevrolet Owner:

This notice is sent to inform you that Chevrolet Motor Division is conducting an emission recall campaign that includes your vehicle.

REASON FOR THIS RECALL

General Motors has determined that certain 1995 Chevrolet S/T trucks equipped with 4.3L engines may experience a condition in which the crankshaft position sensor improperly functions. This condition could lead to engine stalling with restarting difficult or impossible.

WHAT WE WILL DO

To correct this condition, dealers are to install a new crankshaft position sensor. This service will be performed for you at no charge.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO

Please contact your Chevrolet dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service date and to assure parts availability. Instructions for making this correction have been sent to your dealer. Please ask your dealer if you wish to know how much time will be needed to schedule, process and repair your vehicle.

The enclosed owner reply card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of this card to your dealer will assist in making the necessary correction in the shortest possible time. If you have sold or traded your vehicle, please let us know by completing the postage paid reply card and returning it to us. Should your dealer not schedule a service date within a reasonable time, you should contact the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center by calling 1-800-222-1020.

If your dealer and the Customer Assistance Center are unable to remedy this condition within a reasonable time, you may wish to advise the Environmental Protection Agency at the following address: Director, Manufacturers Operations Division (6405J), United States Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M Street. S.W., Washington, D.C. 20460.

To ensure your full protection under the emission warranty made applicable to your vehicle by State or Federal Law, and your right to participate in future recalls, it is recommended that you have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. Failure to do so could legally be determined to be lack of proper maintenance of your vehicle. Also, your vehicle may fail a state or local emission inspection if this recall is not accomplished.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) requires vehicle emission recall campaigns be completed prior to California registration renewal. Uncorrected emission recall campaigns will result in your not being able to renew your California vehicle registration.

At the time of emission campaign completion, your California dealer will issue a "Campaign Certificate Of Completion". Keep this certificate and, if required, present it to the Department of Motor Vehicles when renewing your California registration as proof of campaign completion.

We are sorry to cause you this inconvenience; however, we have taken this action in the interest of your continued satisfaction with our products.
