CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION DUAL REAR CARGO DOOR WARNING LABEL


Dear Dodge Mini Ram Van Owner:

Our records indicate that you have purchased a 1988 Dodge Mini Ram Van equipped with dual rear cargo doors. The roof, cargo doors and surrounding panels on this vehicle are made of fiberglass.

Equipment such as a roof rack, spare tire carrier or storage bin should not be attached to these fiberglass panels. These parts are not designed to carry the additional load that such equipment places on the attaching points. Cracking and breaking of the fiberglass panels may occur as a result.



Enclosed with this letter is a label to warn against the attachment of such equipment. Please check the right rear cargo door shut face on your vehicle to see if such a label has already been installed. The location is shown in the Illustration on the reverse side of this letter. If it has not been previously installed, please apply the enclosed label following the directions on the reverse side illustration.
We regret the inconvenience which this action may cause you. However, we believe that the instructions are important to help ensure your continuing satisfaction with our product. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
