What's this?A safety/non-compliance recall is initiated by GM and communicated to the National Highway Traffic & Safety Administration to remedy a safety-related defect, or a non-compliance to a federal motor vehicle safety standard.

GM Recall #:
2036110
NHTSA #
16V507
Date Issued:
Jun 29, 2016
Recall Title:
Passenger seat occupant sensing
Recall Description:
General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2009 – 2010 Chevrolet Impala vehicles. The front passenger seat frame in these vehicles may rub against and damage the wires of the passenger presence sensor (PPS) module, which could cause the PPS system to fail to recognize that the passenger seat is occupied and improperly suppress the front passenger airbag. In addition, the cluster gauges and driver information center (DIC) alerts may intermittently turn off or not function properly. In rare circumstances, the damage to the PPS module could cause the airbag fuse to short, resulting in the loss of all airbags and seat belt pretensioners.
Safety Risk Description:
Damage and chafing to the wires of the PPS module could prevent the front passenger airbag from deploying in the event of a crash, which could increase the risk of injury to front passengers. If the wire damage to the PPS module is severe enough to short the airbag fuse, it could cause the loss of power to the sensing diagnostic module, which would result in the loss of all airbags and seat belt pretensioners and could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants in the event of a crash.
Repair Description:
All vehicles will have double wrap class F anti-abrasion tape with 50% overlap added to the wires in the PPS wire harness. For vehicles with wires that are chaffed, dealers will replace the wire if necessary and add anti-abrasion tape to protect it from further wear.

GM Recall #:
N140299
NHTSA #
14V355
Date Issued:
Jun 20, 2014
Recall Title:
UNINTENDED IGNITION KEY ROTATION
Recall Description:
General Motors has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in 2005-2009 model year (MY) Buick Lacrosse, 2006-2011 MY Buick Lucerne, 2000-2005 MY Cadillac Deville, 2007-2011 MY Cadillac DTS, 2006-2014 MY Chevrolet Impala and 2006-2007 MY Chevrolet Monte Carlo vehicles. If the key ring is carrying added weight and the vehicle goes off road or experiences some other jarring event, it may unintentionally move the key away from the "run" position.
Safety Risk Description:
If this occurs, engine power, power steering and power braking will be affected, increasing the risk of a crash. The timing of the key movement out of the "run" position, relative to the activation of the sensing algorithm of the crash event, may result in the airbags not deploying, increasing the potential for occupant injury in certain kinds of crashes. Until the recall has been performed, it is very important that customers remove all items from their key ring, leaving only the vehicle key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. DRIVE WITH ONLY A SINGLE KEY!
Repair Description:
Dealers are to install two key rings and an insert in the key slot or a cover over the key head on all ignition keys, free of charge.
