OnStar(R) modules are to be obtained by contacting York Electronics. Please discard all copies of bulletin 10037A, issued April 2011. THIS PROGRAM IS IN EFFECT UNTIL APRIL 30, 2012. Condition Certain 2002-2009 model year vehicles equipped with OnStar(R) may have a condition in which the vehicle's OnStar(R) system repeatedly makes incomplete calls to OnStar(R) without the vehicle's occupant(s) input or knowledge. Customer initiated Blue Button call, Emergency calls, and Automatic Crash Notification calls will also fail to establish a data connection with the OnStar(R) Call Center. Eventually, the customer's call will connect as a voice only line and the customer will be able to talk with an OnStar(R) advisor; however, the advisor will not get crucial customer data such as vehicle identification and location. Correction Dealers are to replace the OnStar(R) module (VCIM). Vehicles Involved Involved are certain 2002-2009 model year vehicles equipped with OnStar(R), and built within these VIN breakpoints: Note: Some model years/models have only one vehicle involved. 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix V8-5.3L VIN C Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52 Page 3 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix V8-5.3L VIN C Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52 Page 4 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix V8-5.3L VIN C Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52 Page 5 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix V8-5.3L VIN C Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52 Page 6 Important 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix V8-5.3L VIN C Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52 Page 7 Dealers are to confirm vehicle eligibility prior to beginning repairs by using the Investigate Vehicle History link.

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.
