CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION -- CONVERTIBLE TOP CORRECTION

Dear Chrysler Motors Vehicle Owner:

The satisfaction of our customers is very important to Chrysler. Because of this, we are offering a special service to owners of certain 1987 Chrysler LeBaron Convertibles. There will be no charge for this work. The correction is needed to prevent the folding top linkage from binding and pinching the top fabric.

Your car, whose Vehicle Identification Number is shown on the enclosed form, is one of the affected vehicles. The parts needed for its repair are now available. We ask that you arrange for this free service without delay.

To correct the condition, your dealer will modify the top storage area and linkage. The dealer will also inspect the spare tire position and tightness and correct them if necessary.

Important: Each time that you remove the spare tire and reinstall it in the trunk, be careful to push it all the way forward before tightening the wing nut which holds it in position. Also, be sure that the wing nut is as tight as possible. This is necessary to avoid possible interference between the tire and the convertible top when it is lowered.

The service should take less than one hour to complete. To arrange for these improvements:

^ Contact your dealer as soon as possible to schedule an appointment. We ask that you call the dealer who sold you the car if convenient. However, if necessary, the service can be performed by any Chrysler-Plymouth or Dodge dealer.

^ At the time of your appointment, take the enclosed form with you and give it to your dealer. The form is for use by the dealer and by Chrysler to record completion of the service.

If you have any problem obtaining the needed service, please contact the Chrysler Zone Office in your area. (it is listed under "Service Assistance" in your Operator's Manual.) A Zone representative will arrange for prompt servicing of your car.

We regret any inconvenience that this action may cause you. However, we believe that this special service will help to ensure your continuing satisfaction with your Chrysler Motors car.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
