Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles have a console compartment lid latch assembly that may fail to keep the compartment door closed in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 201, "occupant protection in interior impact."

Why it matters: If the console compartment door does not remain closed in a crash, the contents stored in the console may strike the vehicle occupants, increasing their risk of injury.

The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly, free of charge. The recall began on January 5, 2016.
