# NHTSA recall 14V224000 A recall listed here may apply to a vehicle of this year, make and model. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle: check the VIN with the official lookups. - Published by: NHTSA \(United States\) - Campaign number: 14V224000 - Manufacturer's number: 14152 - Manufacturer: General Motors LLC - Reported: 2014\-04\-30 - Owners notified: 2014\-06\-27 - Component: POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:LEVER AND LINKAGE:FLOOR SHIFT; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - Units potentially affected: 1131113 ## What is wrong General Motors LLC \(GM\) notified the agency on April 29, 2014, that they are recalling 56,214 model year 2007 and 2008 Saturn Aura vehicles. On May 22, 2014, GM increased the recall to include an additional 1,074,899 model year 2004\-2008 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles manufactured from May 16, 2003, through October 5, 2007, model year 2004\-2007 Malibu Maxx vehicles manufactured from June 25, 2003, through April 5, 2007, and model year 2005\-2008 Pontiac G6 vehicles manufactured from May 26, 2004, through September 28, 2007, and equipped with 4\-speed transmissions. The total number vehicles being recalled is now 1,131,113. ## What can happen If the transmission shift cable fractures while the vehicle is being driven, the transmission gear selection may not match the indicated gear and the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Furthermore, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, despite selecting the ‘PARK’ position, the transmission may not be in ‘PARK.’ If the vehicle is not in the "PARK" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders. ## The remedy GM will notify owners, and GM dealers will replace the shift cable assembly and mounting bracket, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors at 1\-800\-553\-6000. GM's number for this recall is 14152. ## Notes Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov. ## Remedy progress the manufacturer reported - Report: Quarterly report 9, for 2016 quarter 2 - Filed with NHTSA: 2016\-07\-28 - Vehicles in the campaign: 1131113 - Reported remedied: 606589 \(53%\) - Reported unreachable: 29733 - Reported removed: 0 These are the manufacturer's totals for the whole campaign at the end of 2016 quarter 2, as filed with NHTSA.
