This information may be inserted with a typewriter or ballpoint pen. Install the label on the radiator baffle where it is readily visible. Close hood. (Additional campaign labels are available on stationery order as Form 7901-709.)

Dear Pontiac Owner:

General Motors has determined that your vehicle may be emitting pollutants in excess of Federal Emission Standards. These standards were established to protect the public health or welfare from the dangers of air pollution.

Some 1984 Pontiac Firebird models equipped with RPO LC1 (2.8L V6) engines without air conditioning may have an "open" electrical circuit between the ECM (Electronic Control Module) and the throttle kicker vacuum solenoid. This may cause the vehicle to not meet applicable government emission requirements. If not repaired, this non-conformity may cause the vehicle to fail an emission inspection test.

To prevent the possibility of your vehicle not meeting emission requirements, please contact your Pontiac Dealer to arrange a service date to have this "open" circuit corrected. This correction will be performed at no charge.

Instructions for making this modification have been sent to your dealer. The labor time necessary to perform this modification is approximately 20 minutes. Please ask your dealer if you wish to know how much additional time will be necessary to process your vehicle.

Your Pontiac Dealer is best equipped to provide this service to ensure your vehicle is corrected as promptly as possible. However, if you take your vehicle to your dealer on the agreed service date and they do not remedy this condition on that date or within five days, we recommend you contact your nearest Pontiac Zone Office, either in person or by telephone.

The zone office will assist you and your dealer in getting your vehicle corrected. The locations and telephone numbers of the zone offices are listed in your Owner's Manual.

After contacting your dealer and the zone office, if you are still not satisfied that we have done our best to remedy this condition without charge within a reasonable time, you may wish to write the Manufacturers Operation Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M Street S.W. (EN-340), Washington, D.C. 20460 or call (202) 382-2513.

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 let us know by completing the postage paid owner reply card and returning it to us.

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