{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2008081","date":"2008-03-05","owner_notified":null,"manufacturer":null,"component":"Engine","summary":"On certain Grand Prix GTP and Regal GS vehicles equipped with a 3.8L supercharged 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 property damage, personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will install an updated front rocker cover gasket.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"07035","part_number":null,"units":21046,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety TC","french":{"component":"Moteur","notification":"Sécurité - TC","summary":"Sur certains Grand Prix GTP et Regal GS, munis d'un moteur de 3,8 L à compresseur, une dégradation du joint d'étanchéité de couvercle de culbuteurs avant pourrait causer un suintement d'huile. Lors d'un freinage intensif, des gouttes d'huile à moteur pourraient se déposer sur le collecteur d'échappement. Si le collecteur était assez chaud et que l'huile coulait sous le bouclier thermique, de petites flammes pourraient être produites et, dans certains cas, le feu pourrait s'étendre au support de plastique des câbles à bougie et aller au delà de celui ci. Un incendie sous le capot pourrait endommager des biens matériels, blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un joint d'étanchéité de couvercle de culbuteurs avant à jour."},"vehicles":[{"year":1997,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"1997_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1998,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"1998_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1999,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"1999_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"2000_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"2001_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2002,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"2002_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2003,"make":"BUICK","model":"REGAL","vehicle_id":"2003_buick_regal","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1997,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"1997_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1998,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"1998_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":1999,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"1999_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"2000_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"2001_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2002,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"2002_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2003,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"GRAND PRIX","vehicle_id":"2003_pontiac_grand-prix","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2008081"}
