Attachment I - Administrative Information
OASISYou must use OASIS to determine if a vehicle is eligible for this recall.
PLEASE NOTE
Correct all vehicles in stock before delivery. Federal law requires dealers to complete any outstanding safety recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $5,000 per vehicle.
You must contact Program Headquarters at 1-800-248-0186 to arrange for parts if you have an involved vehicle in stock. When calling this number, identify Safety Recall 01S16 and have the VIN of the dealer stock vehicle to be serviced available.
PROMPTLY CORRECT

Please note that Program Headquarters will advise owners that they will hear from you within the next two business days.
