Scrapping Procedure

During the course of a vehicles useful life, certain situations may arise which will require the disposal of a live and undeployed PIDS Actuator. Do NOT dispose a live and undeployed PIDS Actuator through normal disposal channels until the PIDS Actuator has been deployed.

Do not deploy the PIDS Actuator in the following situations:

  1. After replacement of a PIDS Actuator under warranty the PIDS Actuator may need to be returned undeployed to the manufacturer.
  2. If the vehicle is the subject of a Product Liability report, GM-1241 or Special Field Investigation (SFI), related to the PIDS system and is subject to a preliminary investigation do NOT alter the PIDS Actuator system in any manner.
  3. If the vehicle is involved in a campaign affecting the PIDS Actuator follow the instructions in the Campaign Service Bulletin for proper PIDS Actuator handling procedures.
