Manufacturer:
GENERAL MOTORS CORP.		 NHTSA ID:
92V124000		 Recall Date:
n/a		 Units Affected:
319,181

Affected Component: Seats:front assembly:recliner.

Summary: The power seat or recliner wiring harness can be pinched or can chafe on the seat frame or spring support rod, wearing through the wire insulation and causing an electrical short. .

Conequence: The high current caused by the electrical short welds thecircuit breaker elements together in the closed position, leaving the circuitunprotected and generating sufficient heat to burn the wire insulation andignite the seat cushion material. .

Remedy: Repair any abraded wiring and reroute the wiring harness using a wiring harness clip. .

Notes: System: interior: seating. Vehicle description: passenger cars with 6 way power seats or power recliners. .

GENERAL MOTORS CORP.		 NHTSA ID:
95V173000		 Recall Date:
n/a		 Units Affected:
2,216,325

Affected Component: Seat belts:front:anchorage.

Summary: These vehicles were assembled with rear outboard safety belt anchorages that may not withstand the required load. This does not comply with fmvss no. 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages. ".

Conequence: Consequence of non-compliance: in a collison, stress can cause the attachment metal to tear and allow the anchorage to separate from the body of the vehicle. The safety belt may not protect an occupant in the event of a vehicle crash. .

Remedy: Dealers will replace the existing anchor bolts with a new shoulder bolt and thread locking adhesive. Additionally, noise control patches will be applied at each anchorage. .

Notes: System: interior; active restraints; belt anchor and attachment; fmvss no. 210. Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. Note: 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 buick at 1-800-521-7300; chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020; pontiac at 1-800-762-2737; or oldsmobile at 1-800-442-6537.
