Subject: QUARTER TRIM PANEL VINYL DELAMINATION (INSTALL REVISED QUARTER TRIM PANELS)

Models

Affected: 1991 GRAND AM COUPE MODELS


Condition: Some owners of 1991 Grand Am coupes may comment about the delamination of vinyl material from the left and/or right quarter trim panels. The vinyl will first become loose and bridged in the corners of the quarter window and the armrest area and may show a bubble on other surfaces.

Cause: The above conditions are caused by heat and humidity exposure which causes reduced vinyl adhesion.

Correction: Revised quarter trim panels will be available through GMSPO. In all cases both the right and left quarter trim panels must be replaced.

Dealers are advised to inspect inventory prior to customer delivery and replace quarter trim panels as necessary.
