Instrument clusters will be shipped to the dealership prepaid via UPS unless dealership specifies differently. Such as UPS Next Day Air, Federal Express, etc. The dealer will be invoiced for the cluster. This billing will be cancelled upon receipt of the inoperative cluster and a properly completed AC-Delco Warranty Form (ACD 1078 A). (Figure 1.)

Dealers are to return the malfunctioning cluster prepaid via UPS in the original reusable container to avoid damage. Failure to return the inoperative cluster in the special reusable container may result in a $10.00 container replacement fee. Any unit that is stollen or damaged by accident is to be replaced through normal GMSPO part ordering procedures.

Dealers are to complete all red shaded areas of the AC-Delco Warranty Repair Claim (ACD 1078 A) and forward all copies with the unit to the Service Center. The information MUST be typewritten on the ACD 1078A form. The dealer copy of the form will be returned when repairs are completed. An additional 0.2 hour administration allowance will be paid when units are repaired under warranty. This additional time should be added to the published time allowance in the Labor Time Guide and entered in the "Labor Hour" column of the Oldsmobile Warranty Claim form.

The dealer is to submit an Oldsmobile Warranty Claim for the R & R of the unit and freight charges. The dealer is responsible for retaining the original copy of the form 1078A and the freight receipt or shipping invoice.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
