CONDITION/CAUSE: --------------- Some black hub caps, used on 1989-93 T1 trucks, may become distorted by reflected sunlight focused on the center cap by the wheel trim ring.
---------- If this condition occurs, it can be corrected by using a redesigned trim ring (P/N 15693529), which has a convex surface to redirect reflected sunlight away from the center cap. The older design trim ring has a concave surface which tends to focus sunlight onto the center cap.

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.
