the problem: the vehicles may leak gasoline following a rear-impact crash and a rollover, which in the presence of an ignition source, increases the risk of fire.
the fix: dealers will install a lock ring on the fuel tank that will shield the fuel tank vapor pressure sensor from damage in a rear-impact crash for free.
what owners should do: chevrolet manufacturer gm has not yet provided an owner-notification schedule. owners can call the automaker at 800-222-1020, the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit nhtsa's website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
