2008 ISUZU ASCENDER Recall
- Campaign:
- 15V519000 on 08/13/2015
- Component:
- Exterior lighting:headlights
- Manufactured:
- 11/30/2005 - 09/27/2007
- Affected:
- 429,170
- Defect:
- General motors llc (gm) is recalling certain model year 2007 pontiac grand prix, 2006-2009 buick lacrosse, 2006-2007 buick rainier, chevrolet trailblazer, gmc envoy, 2006 chevrolet trailblazer ext, gmc envoy xl, 2006-2008 isuzu ascender, and saab 9-7x vehicles. in the affected vehicles, the headlamp driver module (hdm) may overheat and fail, causing the headlamps and daytime running lights to not illuminate.
- Consequence:
- Headlamps that do not illuminate reduce the driver's ability to see the roadway and reduce the vehicle's visibility to oncoming vehicles, both of which increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
- Correction:
- Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hdm, free of charge. the recall began on may 17, 2016. owners may contact buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300 or pontiac customer service at 1-800-762-2737. gm's number for this recall is 14291.
- Notes:
- Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
