Description:
General motors llc (gm) is recalling certain model year 2014 chevrolet malibu vehicles manufactured june 12, 2013, through may 2, 2014, and equipped with a 2.5l engine with the auto stop/start option. the affected vehicles may experience a complete loss of brake vacuum assist, disabling the hydraulic boost assist. as such, these vehicles do not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 135, "light vehicle brake systems."

Manufacturer: General Motors Llc
Description:
General motors llc (gm) is recalling certain model year 2014 buick regal, lacrosse, verano, and enclave, and chevrolet impala, malibu, cruze, and traverse, and gmc acadia vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. in the affected vehicles, the transmission shift cable adjuster may disengage from the transmission shift lever. as such, these vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 102, "transmission shift lever sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect." they also fail to conform to fmvss number 114, "theft protection and rollaway prevention."
Consequencs:
If a vehicle's shift cable disengages from the transmission shift lever, a driver may be unable to shift gear positions and the indicated shift position may not represent the gear position the vehicle is in. should a disengagement occur while the vehicle is being driven, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, the driver may be able to shift the lever to the "park" position, but the vehicle transmission may not be in the "park" gear position. if the vehicle is not in the "park" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. a vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.
Notes:
General motors will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any affected transmission shift cable adjusters, free of charge. the recall began on april 10, 2014. chevrolet owners may contact general motors at 1-800-222-1020, buick owners at 1-800-521-7300, and gmc owners at 1-800-462-8782. general motors' number associated with this recall is 14048.

Description:
General motors llc (gm) is recalling certain model year 2014 buick lacrosse vehicles manufactured january 29, 2014, through march 31, 2014 and 2014 chevrolet malibu vehicles manufactured february 7, 2014, through march 31, 2014, and equipped with 17 inch front brake rotors. the affected vehicles may have had brake rotors intended for the rear of the car accidentally installed on the front. the rear rotors, while the same diameter, are thinner and may result in a front brake pad detaching from the caliper.
Consequencs:
If a brake pad detaches from caliper, there may be a sudden reduction in braking, lengthening the distance required to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
Notes:
Gm will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the front brake rotors, and install the correct rotors with new brake pads, as necessary, free of charge. the recall began on june 20, 2014. owners may contact general motors customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (buick) or 1-800-222-1020 (chevrolet). gm's number for this recall is 14128.
