Back in August, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced
a recall on the General Motors GMT360 SUVs (Buick Rainier, Chevrolet
Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X) ranging from the 2005
to 2007 model years and the 2006 GMT370 SUVs (Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and
GMC Envoy XL) due to potential fires associated with the driver's door
module. Initially limited to 250,000 units sold or registered in 20 Snow
Belt states (and the District of Columbia), the recall has now been expanded
to include an additional 193,000 of these SUVs in the US and, according to
The Detroit News, 40,000 more sold outside the US, including Canada and
Mexico.
Like the original recall, the issue is still a faulty driver's door module
that can short out, which could lead to a fire. The Detroit News is
reporting that, out of the 443,000 units being recalled, GM says that there
were 58 fires that caused 11 minor injuries, and the expanded recall
accounted for six fires and one injury. Despite the lower number of fires,
the recall notice recommends that owners park their vehicles until the
recall repairs has been performed.
On recalled units with functional modules, the repair consists of a
protective coating being applied to the module, while vehicles with modules
that are not working properly will have the driver's door module replaced.
The official recall notice is posted below, and it includes contact
information for customers of all five brands. | j*********n
