Service bulletin 12-145-13

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

"THIS BULLETIN PROVIDES INFORMATION REGARDING THE FOLLOWING: • CONDENSATION ACCUMULATING IN THE REAR COMBINATION LAMP ASSEMBLY(IES) • REVISED COMBINATION LAMP HOUSING RETAINING NUTS • REPAIR PROCEDURE FOR THE COMBINATION LAMP MOUNTING AREAS OF THE REAR BODY PANEL DUE TO A SMALLER DIAMETER FLANGE SURFACE, THE ORIGINAL RETAINING NUTS MAY DISTORT THE REAR BODY PANEL MOUNTING AND SEALING SURFACES FOR THE COMBINATION LAMPS ENOUGH TO ALLOW MOISTURE SEEPAGE PAST THE SEALS INTO THE COMBINATION LAMPS AND POSSIBLY THE TRUNK AREA."

Listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned: the document says which.

A recall listed here may apply to some of the same vehicles. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle.
