Attention: This bulletin applies to vehicles sold in the United States only. Contact the Product Quality Center (PQC) for Warranty Navigation Radio Exchanges only. Out-of-warranty customer pay replacements/exchanges/refurbishments should be handled between the Dealer and the ESC.


This bulletin is being revised to update the Navigation Radio Parts Restriction with additional vehicles, model years, ordering process and specific radio part number questionnaires. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Numbers 08-08-44-010A and 08-08-44-011 (Section 08 -- Body and Accessories).


As of September 2, 2008 , Navigation Radio assemblies for warranty repair only will be placed on restriction through the PQC as part of our ongoing quality improvement efforts. In recent Navigation Radio part reviews there were a large percentage of radios exchanged in which the customer's concerns could not be duplicated during testing or published SI documents were available to correct the condition without the need for an exchange unit. Your cooperation with this program is greatly appreciated.

Prior to contacting the PQC and requesting an exchange Navigation Radio, the repairing technician should fill out the appropriate part number specific questionnaire and review the referenced bulletins and PIs. If this is not possible, the dealer representative should be knowledgeable with the customer concern and what diagnostics have taken place. The information gained from these questionnaires is fundamental in helping GM identify and solve radio concerns as we strive to improve quality and increase customer satisfaction.

Navigation Radios with physical damage (for example: shattered displays, impact damage to the radio face and fluid damage) must be reviewed with the District Service Manager for appropriate coverage prior to contacting the PQC. The dealership must note the District Service Manager's approval on the R.O. along with the reason for the goodwill assistance. Do NOT disassemble the radio to try and retrieve stuck CDs/DVDs as this may result in a debit to the dealership.

Retrieve the Navigation Radio part number using the Tech 2®. Refer to Corporate Bulletin Number 04-08-44-005C Utilizing Tech 2 to Retrieve Part Numbers for Radios, Compact Disc (CD) Changers and Instrument Panel Clusters (IPC). Scroll down the bulletin for the appropriate questionnaire based on the Navigation Radio part number. Fill out the "General Questions" section and the section that applies to the customer concern. For example: If the customer concern is with the CD mechanism, it is only necessary to fill out the questions pertaining to the CD/DVD. The appropriate questionnaire must be completed before contacting the PQC.

The PQC will place the orders for the dealers when a Navigation Radio is needed. If there are any questions with the included questionnaires, please do not hesitate to contact the PQC for further assistance.
