As a result, Saturn will provide fuel pump replacement coverage for a period of six years from the date the vehicle was originally placed in service, or 75,000 miles, whichever occurs first. This Special Policy covers both the original owner, and any subsequent owners for the six-year/75,000 mile duration. Please keep this letter with your other important glove box literature for further reference.

This is not a recall campaign. At this time, it is notnecessary to take your vehicle to your Saturn Retailer as a result of this letter. However, if you believe that your vehicle exhibits one of the symptoms described above, please contact your Saturn Retailer for assistance.
