GM recall looks cheap...link to pictures.



When I had our shop put some tires on my car...they asked me if I wanted the recall done. I told them to just give me the parts. I was kind of shocked when they gave me those wire clips.
 
so what exactly is the recall supposed to address?

I am scheduled to have it done on my 98 GTP, but now I am thinking not to.

From reading the bulletin, it sound like all the problem is are the vc gaskets. I have been smelling oil smoke/burning oil for a bit now, and was going to replace them anyways. Then I get this.

Thoughts?
 
So what exactly are they claiming to replace? I replaced my valve cover gaskets awhile back , so from what I see from everybody else, I should be good right? Is this for just the GTP's or GT's also? Just curious, I have one of each.
 


gm said they are supposed to replace the front valve cover gasket with a thicker style gasket to alleviate the concern of "oil sloshing" over and on to the manifold, not adding wire clips, i think somebody got screwed at their dealership.

What I got in the mail mentioned the wire guides. :th_scratchhead:
 
Who cares? Ive seen this thread posted 3 times on other forums. Its not that bad. The stock wire holders look like balls too.
