Actually if you go to the NHTSA web site it does: NHTSA Campaign ID number 
: 71V224000

"GENERAL MOTOR CAMPAIGN NO 69-C-13. POSSIBILITY THAT FUMES IN DIRECT 
AIRHEATING SYSTEM MAY BE TRANSFERRED FROM ENGINE COMPA RTMENT INTO 
PASSENGERCOMPARTMENT. SUCH FUMES, IN SOME CASES, CONTAIN CARBON MOXOXIDE IN 
SUFFICIENTCONCENTRATION TO HARM O R ENDANGER OCCUPANTS OF VEHICLE. (CORRECT 
BYINSPECTING AND R EPAIRING WHERE NECESSARY. ) "

and applies to all Corvairs from 1961 to 1969. Sounds like they look for 
exhaust manifold leaks. Better check first by VIN number - GM only has to 
do it once. per car.
