WITH PAINTED ROOF




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STEPS 3 AND 23 IN THE SERVICE PROCEDURE HAVE BEEN REVISED. PLEASE REVIEW THE REVISED PROCEDURE IMMEDIATELY. DISCARD ALL COPIES OF BULLETIN 05112 ISSUED FEBRUARY 2006.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THIS PROGRAM IS IN EFFECT UNTIL MARCH 31, 2007.

Condition
On certain 2005-2006 Chevrolet Corvette vehicles, the painted roof panel may separate from its frame in some areas if it is exposed to stresses along with high temperature and humidity. The occupants of the vehicle may notice one or more of these symptoms: a snapping noise when driving over bumps, wind noise, poor roof panel fit, roof panel movement/bounce when a door or hatch is closed, or a water leak in the headliner.

Correction
Dealers are to apply adhesive foam to ensure proper adhesion, or in a small number of vehicles, replace the roof panel.

Vehicles Involved
Involved are certain 2005-2006 Chevrolet Corvette vehicles with a painted roof, and built within these VIN breakpoints:

Year
Division
Model
From
Through

2005
Chevrolet
Corvette
55100002 thru
55135053

2006
Chevrolet
Corvette
65100001 thru
65100046


Important: Dealers should confirm vehicle eligibility through GMVIS (GM Vehicle Inquiry System) prior to beginning program repairs. [Not all vehicles within the above breakpoints may be involved.]

For US and Canada: For GM dealers, Canadian Saab, and Canadian Saturn retailers with involved vehicles, a Campaign Initiation Detail Report (CIDR) containing the complete vehicle identification number, customer name and address data has been prepared and will be loaded to the GM DealerWorld (US) Recall Information, GMinfoNet (Canada) Recall Reports. For US Saturn retailers only, the involved vehicles are provided in a Facility VIN List file sent to you at your current email address. Dealers/retailers will not have a report available if they have no involved vehicles currently assigned.

For Export: For dealers with involved vehicles, a Campaign Initiation Detail Report containing the complete vehicle identification number, customer name and address data has been prepared, and is being furnished to involved dealers. Dealers will not receive a report with the bulletin if they have no involved vehicles currently assigned.

The Campaign Initiation Detail Report may contain customer names and addresses obtained from Motor Vehicle Registration Records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any purpose other than follow-up necessary to complete this program is a violation of law in several states/provinces/countries. Accordingly, you are urged to limit the use of this report to the follow-up necessary to complete this program.

Parts Information
Parts required to complete this program are to be obtained from General Motors Service Parts Operations (GMSPO). Please refer to your "involved vehicles listing" before ordering parts. Normal orders should be placed on a DRO = Daily Replenishment Order. In an emergency situation, parts should be ordered on a CSO = Customer Special Order.

 

tie rods, control arms, ABS units, steering racks, torn TBB's, torn F-hose, cam seals, frozen breather hose, fuel relays, weak auto. trans., K03 turbos, wet passenger side floor, leaky headlight washer pumps, leaky after run pump, window guides, etc, etc,...makes me snicker.

At least GM is attempting to step up, Audi rarely does.

Plain and simple, every car has issues.

 

My Audi might not be perfect but this is why I don't drive Detroit!
