Details

What's wrong: The reinforcement panel that serves as a liftpoint for the frame was omitted from the right side rocker assembly of the frame the vehicles do not conform to the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection."

Why it matters: Consequence of non-compliance: the missing reinforcement panel reduces the protection of the vehicle occupants in the event of a side impact collision.

The fix: Dealers will inspect the vehicles for the presence of the right side rocker reinforcement panel. If the reinforcement panel is not present, dealers will contact Chevrolet for further instructions.
