Owner Letter Information
January, 1987Dear Volvo Owner:
Clean air is everyone's responsibility. Volvo wants to do its part to be sure its cars meet the strict regulations of the State of California.
The California Air Resources Board has determined that your vehicle may be releasing air pollutants in excess of the California standards. These standards were established to protect your health and welfare from the dangers of air pollution.
We would like to inspect your car and, at our expense, install vacuum delay valves in the ignition and fuel injection systems to help your vehicle comply with the law. In order 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 a lack of proper maintenance of your vehicle.
I apologize for the inconvenience, but I urge you to call and schedule an appointment. Your Volvo dealer is prepared to perform this free service, which will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. Remember, state law may require periodic engine emission tests. Your car may not pass if this inspection and modification is not made.
If there are any questions that your Volvo dealer cannot answer, feel free to call us at (201) 767-4737 from 8:45 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. (Eastern Standard Time).
