Service Procedure
Important: Service agents must comply with all
International, Federal, State, Provincial, and/or
Local laws applicable to the activities it performs
under this bulletin, including but not limited to
handling, deploying, preparing, classifying,
packaging, marking, labeling, and shipping
dangerous goods. In the event of a conflict between
the procedures set forth in this bulletin and the
laws that apply to your dealership, you must follow
those applicable laws.
Limited Production Options (LPO) utilize Accessory
Dealer Installers (ADI) for installation of production tires
on accessory wheels. The vehicle is shipped with
Production Tires mounted on transit wheels. These
wheels are utilized only for use at the production plant
and during transportation to the dealership. Once the
vehicle arrives at the dealership, the tire and wheel
assemblies are removed from the vehicle and sent to
the ADI.
Starting January 1st, 2023, ADI’s will be providing at
least 4 transit tire labels to the dealers. These labels
are to be placed on the tread of each transit tire during
removal from the vehicle (illustrated below). This allows
proper tracking of the assemblies to the ADI and during
the disassembly/assembly process at the ADI. Each
label contains the VIN of the vehicle that the Accessory
Wheels are being installed on.

It might be necessary to clean the area on the tire(s)
prior to installation of the label.
Important: If applicable, an ADI core could be
impacted if labels are not installed or missing from the
returned transit tires.
If the assemblies are not labeled at time of pickup by
the ADI, the ADI may not accept them. If the labels are
not received from the ADI, the dealer should contact
the ADI directly to obtain replacement labels. If you
have any questions regarding this process, please
contact your local ADI distributor.

Bulletin No.: 22-NA-257
In instances where only the LPO wheels are received
from the ADI, it is dealer responsibility to install the
production tire on the wheel, and shipping labels are
not to be installed. Dealers should install the LPO
wheel and return the transit wheel to the ADI using your
normal return process.

GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these
technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper
service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a
job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your
vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the
information.
