00V235000 on 08/24/2000
Component:
Air bags:side/window
Manufactured:
06/30/2000 - 08/30/2000
Affected:
168
Defect:
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles equipped with a side impact air bag system. the air bag system has a lower side impact safing sensor threshold than specified. because of this reduced threshold, there could be an inadvertent deployment of the side head curtain air bag with severe slamming of the door.
Consequence:
This could cause injury to an occupant.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module assembly.
Notes:
No vehicles have been sold to customers.
Campaign:
00V344000 on 10/29/2000
Component:
Power train:automatic transmission:gear position indication (prndl)
Manufactured:
10/01/2000 - 10/08/2000
Affected:
1,637
Defect:
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles. some of these vehicles were assembled with the transaxle shift cable clip missing or improperly seated. without the clip, the cable can slip out of its bracket and the transaxle lever would not move along with the shift lever. the driver may put the shift lever in park, but the transaxle may be in reverse or neutral.
Consequence:
Unexpected movement of the vehicle could cause a crash without prior warning.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect the transaxle shift cable retainer clip to verify proper installation and, if necessary, replace the clip and adjust the cable to specifications.
Notes:
Owner notification began october 27, 2000.owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact saturn at 1-800-553-6000, prompt #5. also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
Campaign:
01V026000 on 02/06/2001
Component:
Air bags:frontal
Manufactured:
12/31/1999 - 02/27/2000
Affected:
38
Defect:
Vehicle description: passenger, sport utility vehicles and minivans. the passenger air bag inflator modules were built without the correct amount of generant, which produces the gas that fills the air bag. some were built with a double load of generant and some were built without generant.
Consequence:
In the event of a crash that would trigger a passenger air bag deployment, a double load of generant can cause the inflator module to explode. if the air bag module explodes, metal and plastic debris could cause severe injury to vehicle occupant. a module with no generant would not inflate the air bag, and the occupants could receive more severe injuries.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the passenger air bag module. telephone calls were made to owners on january 29, 2001. follow up owner mailing began on april 17, 2001. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, pontiac at 1-800-762-2737, or saturn at 1-800-553-6000.
Notes:
Also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
Campaign:
02V329000 on 12/18/2002
Component:
Air bags:frontal
Manufactured:
09/02/2001 - 09/27/2001
Affected:
272
Defect:
On certain passenger, sport utility vehicles and mini vans, some of these vehicles have a passenger air bag that was manufactured without a check valve pin. an air bag without the check valve pin could produce increased pressure at the onset of the air bag deployment and reduced pressure afterward.
Consequence:
This could increase the severity of injury to a person who was not properly restrained and who was close to the passenger air bag at the time of deployment. it could also reduce the ab8ility of the air bag to protect a restrained front seat passenger.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the passenger air bag. owner notification began december 16, 2002. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, pontiac at 1-800-762-2737, oldsmobile at 1-800-442-6537, or saturn at 1-800-553-6000, prompt #3.

Campaign:
03V231000 on 06/22/2003
Component:
Electrical system:ignition:module
Manufactured:
06/17/2001 - 07/16/2002
Affected:
239,993
Defect:
On certain passenger vehicles equipped with 2.2l l4 (l61) engines, a failure of the ignition control module may cause deterioration in idle quality, reduction in overall engine power, and the vehicle may be hard to start. continued operation of the vehicle after such an ignition module failure will result in the "service engine soon" light flashing, and may lead to secondary failures of the catalytic converter, oxygen sensor, and exhaust resonator.
Consequence:
Failure of the resonator will cause increased exhaust noise. prolonged operation of the vehicle following a resonator failure may lead to a fire.
Correction:
Dealers will (1) replace the ignition control module, (2) replace the ignition control module and spark plugs, or (3) replace the ignition control module, spark plugs, and update the powertrain control module calibration. owner notification began on august 4, 2003. owners should contact saturn at 1-800-553-6000, prompt 3.

Affected:
291,652
Defect:
On certain sedans and wagons, the plastic housing in the rear tail lamp assembly can become distorted if the brake lamps remain on for an extended time.
Consequence:
This can cause (1) an intermittently inoperative brake/tail lamp bulb or (2) a short circuit that opens a fuse causing inoperative brake lamps (including the center high-mounted stop lamp) or tail lamps. a following driver may not know when the brakes have been applied, and a rear-end crash could occur without prior warning.
Correction:
Dealers will install two new tail lamp reinforcing socket adapters and sockets free of charge. the recall began on october 17, 2005. owners may contact saturn at 1-800-972-8876.
