Electrical systemFeb 11, 2014
Monroe Truck Equipment (Monroe) is recalling certain model year 2006, 2008 and 2009 Chevrolet C7500 vehicles, 2005-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles, and 2009 Ford F-350, and F-450 vehicles, equipped with Sure Power-brand battery equalizers or DC-DC converters containing a particular epoxy sealing, aka 'potting', compound. The specific potting compound used in the subject products for insulation was found to be capable of conducting electricity after being exposed to heat.
Once electrically conductive, the material is capable of melting and burning, increasing the risk of a fire.
Monroe will notify owners, and Sure Power will replace the equalizers or converters, free of charge. The recall began on March 24, 2014. Owners may contact Monroe at 1-608-328-8127.

Air bags, frontalOct 31, 2006
CERTAIN VEHICLES ORIGINALLY BUILT WITH CLOTH SEATS THAT WERE EQUIPPED WITH AN AUTOMATIC AIR BAG PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM AND LATER REUPHOLSTERED WITH AFTERMARKET LEATHER SEAT COVER KITS ARE INVOLVED. TESTING HAS INDICATED THAT THE AFTERMARKET LEATHER SEAT COVERS CAN CAUSE THE PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM TO MALFUNCTION.
IF THE PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS, THE FRONT AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE MAY BE DISABLED WHEN IT SHOULD BE ENABLED, OR ENABLED WHEN IT SHOULD BE DISABLED. IN EITHER CASE, IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THAT REQUIRES AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, A FRONT PASSENGER'S LEVEL OF INJURY MAY BE INCREASED.
BECAUSE A REPLACEMENT LEATHER SEAT COVER THAT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM IS NOT AVAILABLE, GENERAL MOTORS (GM) WILL REPURCHASE THESE VEHICLES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS STATED IN GM'S LETTER TO OWNERS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 6, 2006. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT GM AT 1-877-477-1022 TO BEGIN THE PROCESS OF REPURCHASING THEIR VEHICLE.

Seat belts, rear/otherApr 22, 2005
ON CERTAIN CREW CAB PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE 2ND ROW CENTER OCCUPANT SEAT BELT ROUTING MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO POSITION THE LAP PORTION OF THE SAFETY BELT LOW AROUND THE HIPS OF OCCUPANTS, ESPECIALLY SMALLER OCCUPANTS, SEATED IN THIS POSITION. APPROPRIATE USE OF A CHILD SEAT OR BOOSTER SEAT, AS RECOMMENDED FOR SMALL CHILDREN, DOES IMPROVE THE FIT CONDITION FOR THIS USER GROUP. IN ADDITION TO INSTRUCTIONS ON PROPER INFANT AND YOUNG CHILD RESTRAINT (WITH CHILD SEATS OR BOOSTERS), SPECIAL VERBIAGE FOR RESTRAINING OLDER CHILD IS INCLUDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. ALSO, THE SUGGESTED SEAT BELT FIT/ROUTING FOR ADULTS, IRRESPECTIVE OF SEATING POSITION, IS DESCRIBED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL TEXT.
A LAP PORTION OF THE SEAT BELT ROUTING THAT IS NOT LOW AND SNUG ON THE HIPS CAN ALLOW THE LAP BELT TO RIDE UP ON AN OCCUPANT'S ABDOMEN INSTEAD OF FITTING LOW AROUND THEIR HIPBONES, AND THEREFORE, CAN EXPOSE THEM TO MORE RISK OF ABDOMINAL AND INTERNAL ORGAN INJURY.
DEALERS WILL CUT OPEN THE GUIDE LOOP, REMOVE A PORTION OF THE LOOP, AND THEN THE REMAINING TWO SIDES SHOULD BE FOLDED OVER AND SECURED WITH A RETAINER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 21, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, OR HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493.

DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE VEHICLES FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL PUSHROD RETAINER AND INSTALL ONE IF IT IS MISSING FREE OF CHARGE. THE MANUFACTURER BEGAN CONTACTING OWNERS BY TELEPHONE ON MARCH 10, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438 OR GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.

ON FEBRUARY 7TH THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOYED AS MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING HOME FROM THE STORE. WE CONTACTED GM TO FIND OUT IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS ON OUR VEHICLE. WE WERE INSTRUCTED THERE WERE NOT AND WE SHOULD CONTACT GM CUSTOMER SERVICE. ON FEBRUARY 11TH THEY HAD US TAKE OUR VEHICLE TO A GM DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY CONDUCTED AND INVESTIGATION TO DETERMINE WHY. GM RETURNED OUR VEHICLE TO US ON MARCH 3RD STATING THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WAS CAUSED BY SHORTED WIRES IN THE WIRING HARNESS. SINCE OUR VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO US WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL MORE ISSUES THAT WERE NOT PRESENT PRIOR TO THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THE DRIVER SEAT IS STUCK IN ONE POSITION, THE REAR WINDOWS WILL NOT WORK, THE REAR LOCKS WILL NOT WORK, THE FUEL SYSTEM IS LEAKING GAS, AND THE BATTERY IS DEAD, EVEN HAVING TO BE JUMP STARTED WHEN IT WAS RETURNED TO US. GENERAL MOTORS REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS, STATING THESE PROBLEMS ARE NOT A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. HOWEVER, WHEN THE AIRBAG BLEW, WHILE WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT SMOKE INSIDE THE DASH, WE BELIEVE THE AIRBAG BURNT/SHORTED THE WIRES AFTER IT DEPLOYED.

I TOOK MY 2005 CHEVY TAHOE IN FOR A SERVICE LITE. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE UNDER DASH CONNECTORS FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED OR THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT WORK IN AN ACCIDENT, AT A COST OF JUST OVER $500.00. I ASKED WHAT THE EXACT PROBLEM WAS AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CONNECTOR WAS LOOSE AND NOT MAKING CONNECT. I THEN DID SOME BASIC RESEARCH ON THE WEB LOOKING FOR RECALLS AND SUCH AND FOUND SEVERAL REPORTS OF COLLISIONS INVOLVING 05 TAHOES WHERE THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT SPEEDS EXCEEDING 35MPH. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT GM ALREADY HAD AN UPGRADED CONNECTOR SET TO REPLACE THE BAD ONES AS THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN SEEN MORE THAN ONCE. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT GM KNOWS THAT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IS AT FAULT, THEY HAVE IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM AND MADE AN UPGRADED REPLACEMENT PART AND HAVE NO PROBLEM CHARGING CONSUMERS $500.00 TO REPLACE THE PARTS. IN THE MEANTIME PEOPLE ARE DRIVING THE VEHICLES AND I GUESS, HOPING THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, WHICH IS NOT THE CASE IN SEVERAL CRASHES. I HAVE NO WAY TO CHECK WHAT VEHICLES / MODEL YEARS THOSE CONNECTORS WERE USED ON BUT, IT SEEMS LIKE THERE IS A PROBLEM HERE THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED AT BEFORE MORE ACCIDENTS BECOME FATAL. MY WIFE WAS SAVED BY HER AIRBAG BEING DEPLOYED IN A PREVIOUS ACCIDENT, I AM GLAD WE DID NOT FIND OUT THE HARD WAY THIS ONE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THERE FOR HER. *TR

THE "SERVICE STABILITY" WARNING MESSAGE DISPLAYED, ABS WARNING LIGHT, TC TIRE DEFLATION, AND BRAKE FAILURE LIGHT. THE FIRST FAILURE OCCURRED ON OR ABOUT FEBRUARY 13, 2012. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY AND THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED BY MARCH 27, 2012 AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS. THE COMPUTER TESTER WAS ALLEGED TO SHOW THAT THE EBCM HAD FAILED AND WAS REPLACED. THIS DID NOT CLEAR THE DEFECT AND THE SAME WARNINGS CONTINUED WHEN EVER THE CAR WAS WASHED OR BECAME WET FROM RAIN. THE DEFECT WAS SAID TO BE IN THE WIRE THAT POWERED THE EBCM IN THE PROXIMITY OF THE FIREWALL. THE WIRE WAS STATED TO BE FRAYED. WHEN THE WIRE WAS REPLACED THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE WIRE MAY HAVE BEEN DAMAGED FROM ABRASION NEAR THE FIREWALL COMBINED WITH CORROSION FROM ROAD SALT. THIS COULD HAVE LEAD TO FAILURE OF THE ABS, AIRBAGS, AND STABILITY CONTROL AT A TIME WHEN IT IS MOST NEEDED. *JS
