THE PURPOSE OF THIS BULLETIN IS TO ADVISE RETAIL AND WHOLESALE SERVICE PERSONNEL OF CHANGES TO THE WARRANTY SYSTEM THAT WILL NOW ACCOMMODATE THE USE OF PANEL REPLACEMENT LABOR OPERATIONS FOR CORROSION WARRANTY REPAIRS.

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, DEALERS WHO HAVE DETERMINED THAT THE MOST ECONOMICAL REPAIR, WHEN ADDRESSING CORROSION WARRANTY REPAIRS, IS TO REPLACE A PANEL, MAY NOW USE THE APPROPRIATE PANEL REPLACEMENT LABOR OPERATION (S0150 THROUGH S1881) WITHOUT HAVING TO USE AUTHORIZATION "A" FOR THE CORROSION REPAIR (FC-5W). THIS ALSO ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR DEALERS TO USE CORROSION PERFORATION LABOR OPERATIONS (S5050 THROUGH S5590) IN CASES WHERE A SHEET METAL PANEL REPLACEMENT IS THE MOST LOGICAL REPAIR.
