recall notice?

[SinisterSHO]

Today I received a post card saying my GTP has not had a recall done regarding engine compartment fires.

Any details on this? Do I need to call any dealership? Any issue with the mods on the car?

They will replace your valve cover gaskets. If you haven't already done it yourself, take it in and they will do it for free.

i wouldnt bother. the car has rockers, which means the valve cover gaskets have been changed already.

I was wondering the same. Got mine yesterday. Did mine like 2 years ago.

Guess GM still hates Pontiac. MC owners got those well over a year ago. Maybe they were Hoping y'all would not notice.

Ive been getting them for a few years now. If you don't have the repair done they will keep sending them...

sinister - IIRC they only replace the front VC gasket and some plug wire holder.

x2 on only the front cover, ive pulled a warrantied car apart and yes they just replaced the front gasket and grommets and used 3 zipties to retain the ignition cables

We have had customers get the recall done and they replaced both covers and grommets. Of course a couple ended up leaking from not putting the gasket in right. As mentioned if yours are not leaking and you changed them recently dont bother taking it in.

the car does have rockers, and I had the LIM gasket done in April and didn't notice anything..

i only got the front cover done...ended up going back because the tech cracked the valve cover . So now i have one black one and one silver one.

It would be a blessing if my Grand Prix burned to the ground from an engine fire.... oh wait I dont have a 3800

if you decide to set it on fire, let me get that radio first.

 

[G_T_O]

if mine blows up, ill give you the radio haha

I get those letters about my GTP every few months. Honestly, I wouldn't mind if the thing burnt to the ground. I'd really only miss my subs.

I got one the other day, haha. Haven't gotten anything done to mine. New engine= no care.
