Component: Service Brakes, Hydraulic > Antilock > Control Unit/module
Manufacturer: General Motors Corp.
Description:
Some of these passenger vehicles have an electronic control unit (ecu) that may calculate a higher than actual vehicle speed because of an erratic rear-wheel speed sensor signal, and cause abs activation where it is not needed or needed abs activation to be extended during braking as the vehicle speed drops to about 3 mph.
Consequencs:
Unexpected abs activiation could increase stopping distance up to about 11 feet dpending on the grade of the road, increasing the risk of a crash.
Notes:
Dealers will reprogram the abs controller. owner notification began on june 16, 2004. owners should contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438.

Component: Vehicle Speed Control > Accelerator Pedal
Manufacturer: General Motors Corp.
Description:
Certain passenger vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 124, 'accelerator control systems.' in hot ambient conditions, the accelerator pedal arm may stick at the attachment to the bracket and not return to the engine idle position when the operator lifts his foot from the accelerator pedal.
Consequencs:
Failure to return to idle could result in a vehicle crash.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect the accelerator pedal arm and replace the accelerator and brake pedal assembly with a new assembly, if necessary. the recall began on december 20, 2004. owners should contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, pontiac at 1-800-620-7668, or oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537.

Component: Equipment > Other > Labels
Manufacturer: General Motors Corp.
Description:
Certain passenger vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) no. 208, "occupant crash protection." some of these vehicles that were not equipped with an advanced occupant restraint system (aors) have driver and passenger side sun visors with aors labels. the aors labels do not include statements and the illustration required by fmvss no. 208 for vehicles without aors.
Consequencs:
Notes:
Owners will be sent replacement labels with instructions on how to install them. owner notification began on april 21, 2004. owners should contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438.

Component: Seat Belts > Front > Anchorage
Manufacturer: General Motors Corp.
Description:
On certain passenger vehicles, analysis of an a side impact crash test conducted by the nhtsa;s new car assessment program (ncap) indicated that the outboard anchorage of the driver's seat belt could disconnect because of contact between the seat trim and the anchorage connector when the seat was adjusted to its lowest position.
Consequencs:
If this occurred in a crash, the driver could receive greater injuries.
Notes:
Dealers will insert a retainer on both the driver's and passenger's belt anchorages. owner notification began on june 16, 2004. owners should contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438.
