NHTSA recall 16V844000
Visibility · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles may have had the original convertible roof control module (crcm) replaced with an incorrect crcm, that allows the windows to close automatically when the roof is closed and can allow the windows to be closed remotely from distances beyond 11 meters using the key fob. As such, these vehicles no longer meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 118,…
Why it matters: If the windows close automatically or can be closed remotely in ways that do not meet all the requirements of fmvss 118, the unexpected closure can increase the risk of injury to the passengers.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the crcm with correct module, free of charge. The recall began on December 1, 2016.
