ANYONE ELSE HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE PF48 FILTERS NOT SEALING? WE DIDNT HAVE ANY THAT WERE ON THE RECALL ABOUT A MONTH AGO. WE HAVE RECIEVED ALL OF WHAT WE ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH WITHIN THE LAST MONTH. WE HAVE HAD 4 HERE AND OUR SISTER STORE HAS HAD 6 OR 7. FILTERS ARE ON TIGHT BUT THE SEAL STILL DRIPS

Have not heard of any problems from our service department. Just curious do you buy the bulk 19303974 or the boxed 19303975

WE US THE BULK 19303974

We went through a bunch of PF48 and PF63's last year coming back leaking. We still get one here and there. GM issued a bulletin thru Service about tightening specs and instructions, but that didn't matter, we know how to install filters. They never admitted to a parts problem, but they did call back a batch of date codes on PF63's last month, but most of ours had already been installed. That means there was [i]something[i] wrong with them but we don't know what.

But like I said, this issue started with us at least a year ago.

We haven't seen anything here (yet). We also buy the bulk 19303974 filters.

Ditto, ditto, ditto. Still have some 48s and 63s coming back leaking--one just last week actually. We write up a parts warranty ticket and they pay every time. We just make sure to drain and bag the filter as well as possible in case they call it back.

A couple weeks ago there was a Special Return for some of those filters based on the DAY CODE. Check your messages. if you can find them.
