NHTSA recall 01V123000
Seat Belts · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Some of these vehicles fail to comply with requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection." The "fasten safety-belt" audible warning occasionally may not come on or may terminate in less than four seconds as required by the standard.
Why it matters: This does not meet the requirements of the standard.
The fix: Dealers will install a new alarm module. Owner notification began June 27, 2001.
