Dear Pontiac Owner:
General Motors has determined that certain 1984 Pontiac Fiero models were assembled with a mispositioned upper retaining clamp on the heater inlet hose. This could allow the hose to loosen and separate from the heater inlet pipe. A separated hose could cause a loss of engine coolant which could result in premature engine failure.
To prevent this from occurring on your vehicle, please contact your Pontiac Dealer to arrange a service date. The dealer will reposition the heater inlet hose clamp. The service will be completed for you at no charge.
Instructions have been sent to your Pontiac Dealer. The labor time to do the work will be about 12 minutes. Please ask your dealer if you wish to know how much additional time will be necessary to process your vehicle.
The enclosed owner reply card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of this card to your dealer will assist in making the correction in the shortest possible time. If you have sold or traded your vehicle, please complete the postage paid owner reply card and mail it to us.
We are sorry to cause you this inconvenience; however, we have taken this action in the interest of your safety and continued satisfaction with our products.
