TAILGATE POWER LOCK WILL NOT FULLY OPEN DOOR- WAGON

Model and Year: 1985-88 CELEBRITY AND CAVALIER WAGONS

Some 1985-88 Celebrity and Cavalier wagons, with power tailgate releases, may experience a condition where the tailgate will not fully unlock from the remote release.

To repair this condition a new latch assembly, incorporating a stronger spring, has been released. Part number 16604546 is available through GMSPO. Vehicles built after January 1988 will incorporate the new latch assembly.

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.
