Well, that's what would seem to be happening here.

yep, the letter tells you to call and schedule an appointment to get the gaskets replaced....I will try to scan it in sometime soon

well, i wasnt sure if it is actually a recall now or the same letter that i got already that says they are waiting for parts...just wanted to make sure...cool deal...i should get a letter soon then!

It's now a Recall (although GM calls it a "Field Action").

 

The number is 07035.

 

But don't be surprised if your dealer doesn't have all the parts...........you have to replace the front VC gasket, 6 grommets (which are the hard to find part) and a couple of bolts or studs.

 

Either way.........if your vehicle falls under the Recall, go to ANY GM dealer and have it done.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BTW.

 

PM me if you REALLY want your VIN run to see if you fall under the recall..........all I need is the last 8 digits.

They called it a Safety Recall on my letter :shrug: ...anyway I scanned it in below for people to check out if they feel so inclined

A girl I work with has a 2002 GTP. I should probably check to make sure she knows about this..

Posted

from what i read on CGP, its gonna go in phases...phase 1 is 97-2000 i think, then phase 2 will be 2001-2003...soo, technically if that is correct, then mine hasnt been recalled YET...

if you have changed your front valve cover gasket you won't have a problem. it is because of alot of newer cars most people don't take care any more. almost all of these cars are higher mileage cars.

got everything done today on the GTP.....they even washed the car before giving it back to me :) .....I called my sister to remind her to take her GS in as well...

Posted

only to 03 ? i knew of this but ignored cause i was 3400 powered but now im 04 and L67 powered... did they change something for 04 to get rid of this issue?

Posted

I think the L67 in the 04-05 Monte's and Impalas are the same as the 97-03's, I'm not sure why they aren't included.

Posted

From what I remember, GM started to use the "updated" gaskets in all 2004 L67's. So, you shouldn't have a massive oil leak from your valve covers gaskets. lol
