Owner Letter

June, 1996

Dear Pontiac Sunfire Customer:

This notice is sent to inform you that Pontiac Division is conducting an emission recall campaign that includes your vehicle.

REASON FOR THIS RECALL

General Motors has determined that some 1996 Pontiac Sunfire models equipped with the 2.2L (RPO LN2) VIN Engine Code 4 engine were built with some fuel injectors that may have been subjected to a stress of the plastic encapsulant. After an extended period of time and mileage, the fuel injectors in some of these vehicles may exhibit leakage of fuel vapor that may cause the vehicle to be out of compliance with evaporative emission standards.

WHAT WE WILL DO

To prevent this condition from occurring, your dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace any affected injectors with a new part. This service will be performed for you at no charge.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO

Please contact your Pontiac dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service date and to assure parts availability. Instructions for making this correction have been sent to your dealer. Please ask your dealer if you wish to know how much time will be needed to schedule, process and repair your vehicle.

The enclosed owner reply card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of this card to your dealer will assist in making the necessary correction in the shortest time possible. If you have sold or traded your vehicle, please let us know by completing the postage paid reply card and returning it to us. Should your dealer not schedule a service date within a reasonable time, you should contact the Pontiac Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-762-2737.

To ensure your full protection under the emission warranty made applicable to your vehicle by State or Federal Law, and your right to participate in future recalls, it is recommended that you have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. Failure to do so could legally be determined to be lack of proper maintenance of your vehicle. Also, your vehicle may fail a state or local emission inspection test if the recall work is not completed.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) requires that vehicle emission recall campaigns be completed prior to California registration renewal. Uncorrected emission recall campaigns will result in the inability to renew your California vehicle registration.

At the time of emission campaign completion, your California dealer will issue a "Campaign Proof of Correction". Keep this certificate and, if required, present it to the Department of Motor Vehicles when renewing your California registration as proof of campaign completion.

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