FRONT SEAT BACK NOISE OR RATTLE (INSTALL BUSHING P/N)

1982-87 FIREBIRD MODELS

Some owners of 1982-87 Firebird models may comment on a rattle type noise coming from the front seat back passenger and/or drivers side. This noise can be eliminated by installing a new bushing, P/N 17960700, at the seat back inboard pivot arm attaching location.

The new bushing, P/N 17960700, should be installed with the large end toward the seat frame.

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.
