SUBJECT: INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION IN DOOR LOCK CYLINDERS


MODELS AFFECTED: 1989 DE VILLES, FLEETWOODS, BROUGHAMS, ELDORADOS, SEVILLES, AND ALLANTES


Difficulty in the insertion of the door lock key into the lock cylinder may be experienced on some 1989 Cadillacs. This condition may be caused by insufficient lubrication during the cylinder's assembly. To repair this condition lubricate the lock cylinder with GM lubricant, P/N 12345120. If this lubricant is not available, synthetic SAE 5-W-30 engine oil may be substituted.
