General Motors of Canada Limited
Service Publications Department

Oshawa, Ontario
L1H 8P7
Oldsmobile regularly sends its dealers
useful service bulletins about

monitors product performance in the
field. We then prepare bulletins for
servicing our products better. Now, you
can get these bulletins too.

Customer Assistunce Informution

Bulletins cover various subjects. Some
pertain to the proper use and care of
your vehicle. Some describe costly
repairs. Others describe inexpensive
repairs which,
if done on time with the
latest parts, may avoid future costly
repairs. Some bulletins tell a technician
how to repair
a new or unexpected
condition. Others describe a quicker
way to fix your vehicle. They can help
a
technician service your vehicle better.
Most bulletins apply to conditions
affecting
a small number of cars or
trucks. Your Oldsmobile dealer or a
qualified technician may have to
determine if a specific bulletin applies
to your vehicle.
You can subscribe to all Oldsmobile
bulletins. This way you’ll get them as
they come out. You can wait a while
and get an index to the bulletins. You
can also get individual bulletins.
However, you’ll need the index to
identlfy them.
Subscriptions
You can subscribe to all Oldsmobile
Product Service Publications (PSP’s)
.
This will include bulletins for all
vehicles sold by Oldsmobile and will not
be limited to PSP’s applicable to any
particular model.
For subscription costs and ordering
information call the toll-free number
shown in the following text.
What You’ll Find in the Index
A list of all PSP’s published by
Oldsmobile in a model year
(1990 or
later). PSP’s covering all models of
Oldsmobile vehicles are listed in the
same index.
Price information for the PSP’s you
may want to buy.
How You Can Get an Index
Indexes are published periodically.
Most of the PSP’s which could
potentially apply to the most recent
Oldsmobile models will be listed in the
most recent publication for that model
year. This means you may want to wait
until the end of the model year before
ordering an index, if you are interested
in buying PSP’s pertaining to a current
model year car or truck.
Some PSP’s pertaining to
a particular
model year vehicle may be published in
later years, and these would be listed in
the later year’s index. When you order
an index for a model year that is not
over yet, we’ll send you the most
recently published issue.
