GMC Savana 1500 Passenger

Issue: 
On a small number of vehicles, the head restraint on the front passenger seat may not have been properly welded. As a result, the head restraint could move or detach from the seat in a crash.  

Safety Risk: 
A head restraint that moves or detaches in a crash could increase the risk of an injury.  

Corrective Actions: 
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the front passenger seat frame.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a beam inside the driver's door may not have been welded properly. As a result, side impact protection may be reduced in a crash. 

Safety Risk: 
Reduced side impact protection could increase the risk of injuries in a crash.  

Corrective Actions: 
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the driver's door.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the wrong interior rearview mirror may have been installed during production. As a result, the display for the rearview camera image is missing. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the vehicle is reversing. 
Note: This recall only affects certain cutaway chassis vehicles. 

Safety Risk: 
A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the interior rearview mirror.

Issue: 
Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause the transmission control module not to work correctly. As a result, there could be reduced power to the wheels, the transmission could shift harshly and/or the rear wheels could lock up. Additionally, at low speeds, this problem could cause the vehicle to move in an unintended direction.
Note: This recall only affects vehicles with certain engine and transmission combinations.
 
Safety Risk: 
Rear wheels that lock suddenly could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, a vehicle that moves in the unintended direction could also increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions: 
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the transmission control module software.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the brake lines could become damaged by contact with the body mounts. This could lead to a brake fluid leak and cause reduced braking. 
Note: This recall only affects certain cutaway chassis vehicles.  

Safety Risk: 
Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake lines.
