Dear General Motors
Customer:
As the owner of a 2005 model year Chevrolet
Corvette or Pontiac
GTO vehicle, equipped with a
6.0L V8 engine, your satisfaction with our product is very important to us.
This letter is intended to make you aware that some 2005 model year Chevrolet
Corvette and
Pontiac
GTO vehicles, equipped with a 6.0L V8 engine, may experience a condition where the
fuel tank filler cap won't tighten properly or the cap won't come off, or is broken. These conditions
may also cause the illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
Additionally, please be aware that the fuel tank filler cap may not seal adequately to the filler neck
if pushed down when being tightened. Do not apply a downward force to the fuel cap when
tightening.
Do not take your vehicle to your GM dealer as a result of this letter unless you believe that
your vehicle has the condition as described above.
What We Have Done: General Motors
is providing owners with additional protection for the fuel
tank filler cap. If this condition occurs on your 2005 model year Chevrolet
Corvette or Pontiac![]()
GTO vehicle within 10 years of the date your vehicle was originally placed in service or 120,000
miles (193,000 km), whichever occurs first, the condition will be repaired for you at no charge.
Diagnosis or repair for conditions other than the condition described above is not covered under
this special coverage program.
What You Should Do: Repairs and adjustments qualifying under this special coverage must be
performed by a General Motors
dealer. You may want to contact your GM dealer to find out how
long they will need to have your vehicle so that you may schedule the appointment at a time that
is convenient for you. This will also allow your dealer to order parts if they are not already in
stock. Keep this letter with your other important glove box literature for future reference.
