Service Bulletins
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 09-Dec-02 AT 09:06 PM (EST)]Service bulletins are a means by which a technician can make an easy diagnosis and fix. The problem appears to be common enough to warrant a fix that everyone should know about, but may not be a safety hazard if they don't. It may also not be as widely common that they warrant a full recall.
Whether the dealer takes it upon themselves not to charge you for something that a TSB has been written for is completely up to each one. Usually you only go to the dealer if what's on the TSB is a problem for you. The company doesn't notify you that the problem exists. You have to research it yourself. If the TSB became a voluntary or mandatory recall then the company would be liable for the repair.
Hope this helps.
