Subject: REDUCED COOLING CAPACITY OF AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (NEW DUAL Models COOLING FAN KIT)

Affected: 1988-89 GRAND PRIX MODELS WITH 2.8L
Some of the above vehicles, with a single cooling fan, may exhibit the subject condition of the A/C system. The reduced cooling is due in part to less air flow across the A/C condenser during engine idle and "Stop and Go" city driving in very warm weather.

This condition may now be addressed by installing a new dual cooling fan service kit for A/C system performance improvement.

This new kit is P/N 10145125 and consists of the following parts and quantities shown.
