YOUR SERVICE QUESTIONS 1. Does the manufacturer confirm that campaign 25V272000 applies to this VIN, including the report’s equipment and production restrictions?

Which items in the reported replacement remedy for 25V272000 were replaced, and are they identified on the work order?

Campaign listed as open: confirm current instructions, availability and remedy arrangements. Campaign not listed as open: reconcile repair history and lookup coverage with the manufacturer if needed.
