| 2015501 | 2015-10-23. Engine. On certain vehicles equipped with a 3.8L engine, degradation of the front rocker cover gasket may result in eventual oil seepage. Under hard braking, drops of engine oil may be deposited on the exhaust manifold. If the manifold is hot enough and the oil runs below the heat shield, it may ignite into a small flame and, in some instances, the fire may spread to the plastic spark plug wire channel and beyond. An under-hood fire could result in injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the engine’s front valve cover and front-valve-cover gasket with new parts. The engine’s plastic “beauty” cover and plastic oil-fill-tube extension will also be removed, if they haven’t been already. Note: This recall supersedes and is an expansion of recalls 2008-081, 2009-105 and 2015-145. All vehicles having been inspected and/or serviced under the previous recall will require re-inspection and repair. |

Under hard braking, drops of engine oil may be deposited on the exhaust manifold. If the manifold is hot enough and the oil runs below the heat shield, it may ignite into a small flame and, in some instances, the fire may spread to the plastic spark plug wire channel and beyond.

An under-hood fire could result in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install an updated front rocker cover gasket. |
| 2000196 | 2000-09-15. Seats And Restraints. Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of C.M.V.S.S. 209 - Seat Belt Assemblies.

Correction: Suspect buckle assemblies will be replaced. |
| 1999209 | 1999-11-15. Seats And Restraints. On certain vehicles, the passenger side air bag modules may have an undersized inflator orifice. In the event of a crash that would trigger a passenger side air bag deployment, an undersized inflator orifice could cause the inflator module to explode. If an air bag inflator module explodes, metal and/or plastic debris could cause severe injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger side air bag modules in involved vehicles. |
