SEAT BACK TRIM WEAR NEW PADS IN PRODUCTION

1984 FIERO

CONDITION:

---------- A seat back side trim wear condition may be experienced on some 1984 Fieros (see illustration).

CAUSE:

------ The bolster wire portion of the seat back pad assembly exerts excessive pressure on the side trim panel, as a result, contact by the driver and passenger at the pressure location(s) when entering and exiting vehicle causes premature trim wear.

CORRECTION:

----------- To prevent recurrence of this condition, replace the seat pad assembly before repairing the seat trim. The pad assembly should be replaced using the following part numbers:

20424956 Passenger's side w/o stereo 20424957 Driver's side w/o stereo 20424958 Passenger's side with stereo 20424959 Driver's side with stereo

NOTE: All cars after VIN 234851 are equipped with new pads.

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.
