SERVICE INFORMATION
This Service Campaign has been initiated because DCAG has determined that on the affected vehicles (see VIN range below), due to a software coding error, the Tele Aid system may become inoperable.
Attached is a sample copy of a letter which owners of the affected vehicles will receive.
Prior to performing this Service Campaign:
- Please check VMI to insure the vehicle is involved and to determine if the vehicle has been previously repaired.
- Please review the entire Service Campaign bulletin.
