15240 Safety Recall – Power Lift Gate Prop Rod Recovery – 2007-2012 Buick Chevrolet GMC Saturn

oemdtc February 13, 2016 1 Comment

June 30, 2015 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V415000

Liftgate Struts may Fail and Liftgate may Fall

If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury.

 

NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V415

Manufacturer General Motors LLC

Components STRUCTURE

Potential Number of Units Affected 691,144

 

Summary

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2008-2012 Buick Enclave vehicles manufactured January 3, 2007, to February 29, 2012, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse vehicles manufactured July 6, 2008, to March 9, 2012, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia vehicles manufactured September 15, 2006, to February 29, 2012, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook vehicles manufactured August 17, 2006, to March 18, 2010. The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall.

 

Remedy

GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The recall began on November 15, 2016. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300, Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782, and Saturn customer service at 1-800-553-6000. GM’s number for this recall is 15240.

 

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Closed Product Field Actions Re-Opened Due to Missing or Invalid Warranty Claim Codes Recalls 15176, 15240, 15299, 15808, 16007, 17130, 17276, 17287 and 45340  

 

A warranty audit of paid transactions for the safety and noncompliance recalls identified above revealed that some transactions were submitted without a Warranty Claim Code (WCC) or with an incorrect WCC.  This code is generated when a control module is successfully programmed using the TIS Service Programming System (SPS).  Since these transactions were identified as not having a valid WCC, the status of the involved vehicles was changed from “closed” to “open” in the Required Field Actions section of Investigate Vehicle History (IVH).  Dealer message GCUS-3-1280 dated June 26, 2018 provides additional details (see attached copy).

 

Q1: Will these transactions be debited?
A1: No, only the field action is being re-opened in IVH in the interest of customer safety.  However, some previous transactions for recall 15299 were re-opened and debited on March 16, 2018.  These transactions are now being worked by the Warranty Support Center (WSC) to cancel the debits and re-credit the affected dealers.  Future transactions that do not contain a valid WCC may be debited, if dealers do not take appropriate actions resolve this situation.
 
Q2: What if a dealer can’t locate the current vehicle owner?
A2: If the current vehicle owner cannot be located, no further action is necessary.  GM uses state vehicle registration records to regularly update owner of record information for open field actions.  These updates are available on the Open Vehicle Report (OVR), which is posted monthly in GM GlobalConnect.  Product field action reminder notices are also mailed to the new vehicle owners as they are identified.
 
Q3: Will a dealer be paid to program a vehicle a second time?
A3: Yes, if a second programming event is required, dealers should open a new job card and re-use the labor code and labor time from the applicable bulletin.  To facilitate this activity, an update was made in Service Programming System (SPS) which allows a technician to override the “same calibration” warning on these specific recall reprogramming events.  This provides the ability to perform the second programming event and obtain a new WCC.
 
Q4: If another dealer was originally involved, can any dealer perform the second programming event and how do they get paid?
A4: Performance of the second programming event is not restricted to the dealer who performed the original programming event and did not submit a valid WCC.  In such cases, dealers should submit a transaction as they normally do, using the labor code and labor time from the applicable bulletin.  The first dealer to submit a transaction with a valid WCC will be paid and the recall will be closed in IVH.  Exceptions will be addressed on a case-by-case basis by the GM Warranty Support Center (WSC).
 
Q5: If a valid WCC is retrievable from dealer records, can the original transaction be adjusted in the GWM system?
A5: Yes, if the original transaction was processed within the past 2 years, the transaction can be adjusted (adding the WCC) on-line in the GWM system.  Dealers should not use their Dealer Management System (DMS) to do this.
Q6: If a dealer has a valid WCC and is re-submitting an original transaction that is less than 2 years old, are they entitled to labor time?
A6: As a technician is not required in this case, dealers are not entitled to claim additional labor time. A dealer however may submit a $20.00 administrative allowance as compensation for processing the second transaction.  After adding the WCC to the original transaction’s “SPS Warranty Claim Code” field the dealer may add $20.00 to the Net Item/Admin Allowance field and resubmit the transaction.
 
Q8: What should a dealer do if they have a valid WCC, but the original transaction is over 2 years old?  Can they resubmit the transaction?
 A8: No, the dealer should create a new job card making sure to use all the information from the first job card (open date, mileage and technician code, etc.).  After adding the WCC to the transaction’s “SPS Warranty Claim Code” field and $20.00 to the Net Item/Admin Allowance field, the dealer should submit the new transaction.
 
Q9: What should a dealer do if a valid WCC is not retrievable from dealer records?
A9: If a valid WCC was not recorded on the shop copy of the job card and/or is not retrievable from the SPS history log, the involved vehicle must be reprogrammed to generate a new WCC.  Using the labor code and labor time provided in the bulletin, the dealer should create a new job card.  Note that the dealer is entitled to whatever time is listed in the bulletin, but not the $20.00 administrative allowance.  Upon completion of this second programming event, the dealer should submit the new transaction making sure to include the new WCC.
 
Q10: Will the system reject these transactions due to age or mileage?
A10: There is no “over-age” or “mileage rollback” edit in place for the resubmission of these transactions, so they should pay without the need for wholesale authorization.

 


Reopened Recalls Involving Module Reprogramming Events – FAQs

 

What if a dealer can’t locate the current vehicle owner?

If the current vehicle owner cannot be located, please review all available resources to determine if the customer’s residence is within the dealership’s area.  GM uses state vehicle registration records to regularly update owner of record information for open field actions. These updates are available on the Open Vehicle Report (OVR), which is posted monthly in GM GlobalConnect under the “Service” Tab and the “Field Action Information” Application. Product field action reminder post cards are also mailed to any new vehicle owners as they are identified.

 

Will a dealer be paid to program a vehicle a second time?

Yes, if a second programming event is required, dealers should open a new job card and re-use the labor code and labor time from the applicable bulletin. To facilitate this activity, an update was made in Service Programming System (SPS) which allows a technician to override the “same calibration” warning on these specific recall reprogramming events. This provides the ability to perform the second programming event and obtain a new Warranty Claim Code.  Please read the updated recall bulletin carefully for these changes in the service procedure.

 

If another dealer was originally involved, can any dealer perform the second programming event and how do they get paid?

Performance of the second programming event is not restricted to the dealer who performed the original programming event and did not submit a valid Warranty Claim Code. Any dealer can submit a transaction as they normally do, using the labor code and labor time from the applicable bulletin. Any dealer that submits a transaction with a valid Warranty Claim Code will be paid and the recall will be closed in IVH. Exceptions will be addressed on a case-by-case basis by the GM Warranty Support Center (WSC).

 

If a dealer has a valid Warranty Claim Code and is re-submitting an original transaction that is less than 2 years old, are they entitled to labor time?

As a technician is not required in this case, dealers are not entitled to claim additional labor time. A dealer however may submit a $20.00 administrative allowance as compensation for processing the second transaction. After adding the Warranty Claim Code to the original transaction’s “SPS Warranty Claim Code” field the dealer may add $20.00 to the Net Item/Admin Allowance field and resubmit the transaction.

 

What should a dealer do if they have a valid Warranty Claim Code, but the original transaction is over 2 years old? Can they resubmit the transaction?

No, the dealer should create a new job card making sure to use all the information from the first job card (open date, mileage and technician code, etc.). After adding the Warranty Claim Code to the transaction’s “SPS Warranty Claim Code” field and $20.00 to the Net Item/Admin Allowance field, the dealer should submit the new transaction.

 

If a valid Warranty Claim Code is not retrievable from dealer records and the vehicle must be reprogrammed, will the dealer be paid for that event?

If a valid Warranty Claim Code was not recorded on the shop copy of the job card and/or is not retrievable from the SPS history log, the involved vehicle must be reprogrammed to generate a new Warranty Claim Code. Using the labor code and labor time provided in the bulletin, the dealer should create a new job card. Note that the dealer is entitled to whatever labor time listed in the bulletin, but not the $20.00 administrative allowance mentioned above. Upon completion of this second programming event, the dealer should submit the new transaction making sure to include the new Warranty Claim Code.

 

Will the system reject these transactions due to age or mileage?

There is no “over-age” or “mileage rollback” edit in place for the resubmission of these transactions, so they should pay without the need for wholesale authorization.

 

Will dealers be debited for these transactions that did not include a Warranty Claim Code (WCC)?

As mentioned above, GM will pay dealers for either the labor time to reprogram the module(s) for each of these recalls or the Administrative Time to pull the WCC from the shop copy of the previous repairs.  Transactions processed prior to July 19th, including the list attached to this dealer message will not be debited.  Transactions submitted after July 19, 2018 that do not contain an accurate WCC will be debited and reopened to ensure the proper calibration has been installed in the module(s).


Bulletin No.: 15240D
Date: November 2017

Subject: 15240E – Power Lift Gate Prop Rod Recovery
Models: 2008-2012 Buick Enclave
2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse
2007-2012 GMC Acadia
2007-2010 Saturn Outlook
Built Prior to March 10, 2012 Equipped with Power Lift Gate (TB5 or E61)

The Service Procedure and the Warranty Information sections have been revised. Effective immediately, technicians MUST record the Warranty Claim Code on the Job Card. To avoid warranty transaction rejection, this information must be entered when submitting the transaction. If the Same Calibration/Software Warning is noted on the SPS Controller screen, continue with the programming event using SPS to ensure a Warranty Claim Code is displayed on screen. Please discard all copies of bulletin 15240D.


It is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle or any new or used item of motor vehicle equipment (including a tire) covered by this notification under a sale or lease until the defect or noncompliance is remedied.

All involved vehicles that are in dealer inventory must be held and not delivered to customers, dealer traded, or used for demonstration purposes until the repair contained in this bulletin has been performed on the vehicle.

 

Condition

General Motors has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in all 2008-2012 model year (MY) Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 MY Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 MY GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 MY Saturn Outlook vehicles equipped with a power lift gate (TB5 or E61). These vehicles may have a condition in which the gas struts that hold the lift gate up may prematurely wear. These vehicles have a Prop Rod Recovery system intended to accomplish a controlled, slow return of the lift gate to the closed position if the lift gate’s gas struts are no longer capable of supporting the weight of the lift gate.  However, in some cases, the lift gate’s Prop Rod Recovery system software may be unable to detect/stop a lift gate with prematurely worn gas struts from falling too quickly after the lift gate is opened. If the open lift gate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing the risk of injury.

 

Correction

Dealers will reprogram the Accessory and Lift Gate Control Module with a new software calibration intended to mitigate the condition. Additionally, after reprogramming the vehicle, dealers will verify power lift gate operation. If this functionality check reveals that the reprogramming was ineffective because one or both lift gate gas struts are no longer capable of supporting the weight of the lift gate, dealers are to replace both struts.

Note: If the lift gate gas struts do not require replacement when the Accessory and Lift Gate Control Module is reprogrammed but one or both struts subsequently fails during the 90 day period after the reprogramming event, dealers are to replace both struts at no charge to the customer in the interest of customer satisfaction. Dealers should submit a policy warranty transaction to cover this service. Depending on a dealer’s self-authorization or empowerment level, this ZREG transaction type may require wholesale authorization. However, since lift gate gas strut replacement is normally considered a maintenance item, if a strut fails after the 90 day period, replacement of one or both struts should not be covered and should be considered as a customer pay issue.

 

Vehicles Involved

All involved vehicles are identified by Vehicle Identification Number on the Investigate Vehicle History screen in GM Global Warranty Management system. Dealership service personnel should always check this site to confirm vehicle involvement prior to beginning any required inspections and/or repairs. It is important to routinely use this tool to verify eligibility because not all similar vehicles may be involved regardless of description or option content.

For dealers with involved vehicles, a listing with involved vehicles containing the complete vehicle identification number, customer name, and address information has been prepared and will be provided to US and Canadian dealers through the GM GlobalConnect Recall Reports, or sent directly to export dealers. Dealers will not have a report available if they have no involved vehicles currently assigned.

The listing may contain customer names and addresses obtained from Motor Vehicle Registration Records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any purpose other than follow-up necessary to complete this recall is a violation of law in several states/provinces/countries. Accordingly, you are urged to limit the use of this report to the follow-up necessary to complete this recall.

 

Parts Information

Parts required to complete this recall are to be obtained from GMCCA.   It will be necessary for dealers to complete the software installation portion of the service procedure to determine if replacement parts (lift gate struts) are necessary.

Note: Due to flight restrictions for the transport of hazardous material shipments, replacement lift gate struts cannot be air freighted for overnight delivery. Orders will arrive via FedEx Ground or with the normal PDC delivery. Therefore, dealers should only order as DRO = Daily Replenishment Order or CSO = Customer Special Order. All orders will be reviewed before processing.  Please do not place orders as SPAC as this will delay shipment of the order and will not provide visibility of the order in the parts ordering system.

Part Number Description Quantity/ Vehicle
84050727 Lift Gate Strut – Right (Outlook/Acadia) 1 (If Required)
22918204 Lift Gate Strut – Left (Outlook/Acadia) 1 (If Required)
22976292 Lift Gate Strut – Right (Traverse) 1 (If Required)
22976291 Lift Gate Strut – Left (Traverse) 1 (If Required)
22918207 Lift Gate Strut – Right (Enclave) 1 (If Required)
22918206 Lift Gate Strut – Left (Enclave) 1 (If Required)

 

Service Procedure

Note: A training video is available on the GM Center of Learning web site (centerlearning.com) to help technicians determine the performance of the power lift gate support struts after the required reprogramming has been performed. After logging into the website, U.S. dealers should select Resources, then Video on Demand and then click on 10215.11D – November 2015 Emerging Issues. The video will be in the trucks segment.

In Canada, dealers should access the GM Centre of Learning website, then follow this path: Resources / Video on Demand / GM Pro Centre of Learning / Service Technical / Recall 15240 Post Inspection

Note: Carefully read and follow the instructions below.

  • Ensure the programming tool is equipped with the latest software and is securely connected to the data link connector. If there is an interruption during programming, programming failure or ECU damage may occur.
  • Stable battery voltage is critical during programming. Any fluctuation, spiking, over voltage or loss of voltage will interrupt programming. Install the EL-49642 SPS Programming Support Tool to maintain system voltage. If not available, connect a fully charged 12 V jumper or booster pack disconnected from the AC voltage supply. DO NOT connect a battery charger.
  • Turn OFF or disable systems that may put a load on the vehicles battery such as; interior lights, exterior lights (including daytime running lights), HVAC, radio, etc.
  • Clear DTCs after programming is complete. Clearing powertrain DTCs will set the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) system status indicators to NO.

SPS Warranty Claim Code (1)

Note: If the Same Calibration/Software Warning is noted on the SPS Controller screen, continue with the programming event using SPS to ensure a Warranty Claim Code is displayed on screen. Technicians MUST record the Warranty Claim Code (1) on the Job Card. To avoid warranty transaction rejection, this information must be entered when submitting the transaction.

  1. Reprogram the Power Lift Gate Module (PLGM). Refer to Lift Gate Control Module Programming and Setup in SI.
  2. Record SPS Warranty Claim Code on job card for warranty transaction submission.
  3. After the new programming is installed, verify the function of the lift gate.
    • If the lift gate DOES function properly, insure that both lift gate struts are installed with the rod end facing downward. See the Lift Gate Strut Orientation section below for proper strut orientation.
    • If the lift gate DOES NOT function properly as demonstrated in the training video referenced at the beginning of this service procedure:
      • One or both struts fail to hold the lift gate open – replace both lift gate struts.
      • Lift gate only opens partially and then reverses to close – replace both lift gate struts.

Refer to Lift Gate Strut Replacement in SI. Also see the Lift Gate Strut Orientation section below for additional installation information.

 

Lift Gate Strut Orientation

Note: GM engineering has determined that improved durability of the lift gate strut can be realized by installing the strut assembly with the rod end facing downward (attached to the lift gate) when the lift gate is in the closed position. In this orientation, dust and dirt does not collect on the strut housing to rod seal, which can cause wear on the seal.

lift gate struts
Note: When replacing or repositioning the lift gate struts, install the strut assembly with the strut body end attached to the vehicle body and the rod side attached to the lift gate (1).

Note: A copy of the notice on the last page of this bulletin should be given to the customer upon completion of this service procedure. This notice provides important information about power lift gate operation.

 

Customer Reimbursement – For US

Customer requests for reimbursement of previously paid repairs for the recall condition are to be submitted to the dealer by November 30, 2016, unless otherwise specified by state law. If this is not convenient for the customer, the customer may mail the completed Customer Reimbursement Request Form and all required documents to the GM Customer Assistance Center.

All reasonable and customary costs to correct the condition described in this bulletin should be considered for reimbursement. Any questions or concerns should be reviewed with your GM representative prior to processing the request.

When a customer requests reimbursement, they must provide the following:

  • A completed Customer Reimbursement Request Form. This form is mailed to the customer or can be obtained through GM GlobalConnect.
  • The name and address of the person who paid for the repair.
  • Paid receipt confirming the amount of the repair expense, a description of the repair, and the person or entity performing the repair.

Note: GM requires dealers to approve or deny a reimbursement request within 30 days of receipt. If a reimbursement request is approved, the dealer should immediately issue a check to the customer and submit an appropriate warranty transaction for the incurred expense. If a reimbursement request is denied, the dealer MUST provide the customer with a clear and concise explanation, in writing, as to why the request was denied. The bottom portion of the Customer Reimbursement Request Form may be used for this purpose. If the denial was due to missing documents, the customer can resubmit the request when the missing documents are obtained, as long as it is still within the allowed reimbursement period.

Warranty transactions for customer reimbursement of previously paid repairs are to be submitted as required by GM Global Warranty Management. Additional information can also be found in Warranty Administration Bulletin 11-00-89-004.

 

Customer Reimbursement – For Canada and Export

Customer requests for reimbursement of previously paid repairs to correct the condition described in this bulletin are to be submitted to the dealer prior to or by November 30, 2017.

When a customer requests reimbursement, they must provide the following:

— Proof of ownership at time of repair.

— Original paid receipt confirming the amount of unreimbursed repair expense(s) (including Service Contract deductibles), a description of the repair, and the person or entity performing the repair.

All reasonable and customary costs to correct the condition described in this bulletin should be considered for reimbursement. Any questions or concerns should be reviewed with your GM representative prior to processing the request.

 

Courtesy Transportation – For US and Canada

The General Motors Courtesy Transportation program is intended to minimize customer inconvenience when a vehicle requires a repair that is covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranties. The availability of courtesy transportation to customers whose vehicles are within the warranty coverage period and involved in a product program is very important in maintaining customer satisfaction. Dealers are to ensure that these customers understand that shuttle service or some other form of courtesy transportation is available and will be provided at no charge. Dealers should refer to the General Motors Service Policies and Procedures Manual for Courtesy Transportation guidelines.

 

Warranty Transaction Information

Submit a transaction using the table below. All transactions should be submitted as a ZFAT transaction type, unless noted otherwise.

Note: To avoid having to “H” route a customer reimbursement transaction for approval, it must be submitted prior to the repair transaction.

If the technician failed to record this information on the job card, it is retrievable. See Warranty Information Bulletin 06-08-47-001M (SI Document ID 4724920) for instructions.

** The amount identified in “Net Item” should represent the dollar amount reimbursed to the customer.

Note: Customer reimbursement will not close this recall. The service procedure must also be performed on the vehicle.

Note: If the lift gate gas struts do not require replacement when the Accessory and Lift Gate Control Module is reprogrammed but one or both struts subsequently fails during the 90 day period after the reprogramming event, dealers are to replace both struts at no charge to the customer in the interest of customer satisfaction. Dealers should submit a policy warranty transaction to cover this service. Depending on a dealer’s self-authorization or empowerment level, this ZREG transaction type may require wholesale authorization. However, since lift gate gas strut replacement is normally considered a maintenance item, if a strut fails after the 90 day period, replacement of one or both struts should not be covered and should be considered as a customer pay issue.

 

Customer Notification – For US and Canada

General Motors will notify customers of this recall on their vehicle (see copy of customer letter included with this bulletin).

 

Customer Notification – For Export

Letters will be sent to known owners of record located within areas covered by the U.S. National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. For owners outside these areas, dealers should notify customers using the attached sample letter.

 

Dealer Recall Responsibility – For US and Export (US States, Territories and Possessions)

It is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle or any new or used item of motor vehicle equipment (including a tire) covered by this notification under a sale or lease until the defect or noncompliance is remedied.

The U.S. National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act provides that each vehicle that is subject to a recall of this type must be adequately repaired within a reasonable time after the customer has tendered it for repair. A failure to repair within sixty days after tender of a vehicle is prima facie evidence of failure to repair within a reasonable time. If the condition is not adequately repaired within a reasonable time, the customer may be entitled to an identical or reasonably equivalent vehicle at no charge or to a refund of the purchase price less a reasonable allowance for depreciation. To avoid having to provide these burdensome remedies, every effort must be made to promptly schedule an appointment with each customer and to repair their vehicle as soon as possible. In the recall notification letters, customers are told how to contact the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration if the recall is not completed within a reasonable time.

 

Dealer Recall Responsibility – All

All unsold new vehicles in dealers’ possession and subject to this recall must be held and inspected/repaired per the service procedure of this recall bulletin before customers take possession of these vehicles.

Dealers are to service all vehicles subject to this recall at no charge to customers, regardless of mileage, age of vehicle, or ownership, from this time forward.

Customers who have recently purchased vehicles sold from your vehicle inventory, and for which there is no customer information indicated on the dealer listing, are to be contacted by the dealer. Arrangements are to be made to make the required correction according to the instructions contained in this bulletin. A copy of the customer letter is provided in this bulletin for your use in contacting customers. Recall follow-up cards should not be used for this purpose, since the customer may not as yet have received the notification letter.

In summary, whenever a vehicle subject to this recall enters your vehicle inventory, or is in your dealership for service in the future, you must take the steps necessary to be sure the recall correction has been made before selling or releasing the vehicle.


November 2016

Dear General Motors Customer:

This notice applies to your vehicle, VIN: ____________________________________

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in all 2008-2012 model year (MY) Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 MY Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 MY GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 MY Saturn Outlook vehicles built prior to March 10, 2012 and equipped with a power lift gate. As a result, GM is conducting a safety recall. We apologize for this inconvenience. However, we are concerned about your safety and continued satisfaction with our products.

Important:

  • Your vehicle is involved in GM recall 15240.
  • Schedule an appointment with your GM dealer.
  • This service will be performed for you at no charge.
Why is your vehicle being recalled? Your vehicle may have a condition in which the gas struts that hold the lift gate up may prematurely wear. Your vehicle has a Prop Rod Recovery system intended to accomplish a controlled, slow return of the lift gate to the closed position if the lift gate’s gas struts are no longer capable of supporting the weight of the lift gate.  However, in some cases, the lift gate’s Prop Rod Recovery system software may be unable to detect/stop a lift gate with prematurely worn gas struts from falling too quickly after the lift gate is opened. If the open lift gate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing the risk of injury.
What will we do? Your GM dealer will reprogram the Accessory and Lift Gate Control Module with a new software calibration intended to mitigate the condition. Additionally, after reprogramming the vehicle, your dealer will verify power lift gate operation. If this functionality check reveals that the reprogramming was ineffective because one or both gas struts are no longer capable of supporting the weight of the lift gate, your dealer are to replace both struts. This service will be performed for you at no charge. Because of service scheduling requirements, it is likely that your dealer will need your vehicle longer than the approximate service correction time of 30 minutes.
What should you do? You should contact your GM dealer to arrange a service appointment as soon as possible.

GM Recall #15240

 

When the vehicle is returned to the customer, it is very important to review and give them a copy of the notice provided below. Please reproduce locally.

Dear General Motors Customer:

Your dealer has performed the following activities on your vehicle:

  • Reprogrammed the Accessory and Lift Gate Control Module with a new software calibration that will address the condition described in your safety recall letter.
  • Inspected the two gas struts that hold the lift gate open to ensure that they are working as intended.
  • Verified proper operation of the power lift gate feature.

Even though these activities have been performed on your vehicle, please note that the gas struts used to hold the lift gate may still need to be replaced periodically.

When the power lift gate feature is used to open the lift gate after the gas struts have lost the ability to hold the lift gate open, the enhanced safety system is designed to engage and automatically reverse the gate to close in a controlled manner to eliminate the possibility of a free fall condition. Your vehicle may emit audible “beeps” if this condition exists.

Please contact your dealer if you observe this condition while operating the power lift gate to arrange for a service appointment to have your power lift gate inspected.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or concern that this situation may have caused you. We also want you to know that we will continue to do our best to ensure that your vehicle provides you with many miles of safe and enjoyable driving.

Jeffrey M. Boyer

GM Diagnostic/Programming (TIS2Web)

GM Diagnostic/Programming (TIS2Web)

Approved J2534 Device with TIS2WEB can reprogram 1996 and later All GM Modules.

To obtain the latest electronic controller calibration information for your vehicle, go to https://tis2web.service.gm.com/tis2web and enter the vehicle’s 17 character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and select ‘Get CAL ID’.

You can then compare the latest part number with the actual number installed on the vehicle to determine if a reprogram is needed.

The Service Programming System (SPS) application is part of the TIS2Web system. To program an ECU, the SPS application must communicate with the vehicle control modules using the proper J2534 programming interface tool.

The following are the supported interface tools:

  • Tech 2
OEM GM Tech 2 Dealer Package
  • MDI
Bosch EL-5211-AM GM Multiple Diagnostic Interface 2 (MDI 2) Kit
  • J2534 Programming Interface Tool
Bosch EL-52100-AM GM Multiple Diagnostic Interface 2 (MDI 2) Kit
CarDAQ-Plus 2 Diagnostic Code Reader and J2534 Programming Tool
Drew Technologies (DRWCDPLUSKIT) CarDAQ-Plus J2534 Flash Reprogramming Kit
Drew Tech CarDaq-M 2 SAE J2534-1/2 Reflash Reprogramming Tool OEM Diagnostics
Drew Technologies (DRWMONGGM) Mongoose GM Vehicle Interface (VPW/CAN) J2534  
VSI J2534 ECU Reprogrammer & Diagnostic Adapter
Autel (AULMF2534) MaxiFlash Pro
Dearborn d-Bridge Adapter J2534 OBDII Engineering Tool
 

 

 

 

The Tech 2 supports model years 1996 and beyond. With the addition of the CAN Diagnostic Interface (CANdi) module, Tech 2 is fully backward compatible with current Tech 2 functionality and operates transparently when diagnosing non-CAN-equipped vehicles.

Servicing the next generation Global A vehicles will require the diagnostic software, GDS2, Global Diagnostic System 2 running on a local PC device while the MDI is connected to the vehicle.

The GM MDI is the Global Diagnostic tool for future vehicles starting with Global A vehicles. The GM MDI was introduced in the fall of 2007 for Pass-Thru programming and offers faster programming speed. It can be used to perform Pass-Thru programming on all vehicles built since 1996 and into the future. Click here to view a list of GDS supported vehicles.
