A RECALL WAS IMPLEMENTED IN 2008 TO ADD A FUSE TO THE CONTROL CIRCUIT HARNESS TO ADDRESS THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES OF A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD (PCB) ELECTRICAL SHORT. HOWEVER, THERE HAVE BEEN NEW REPORTS OF THERMAL INCIDENTS ON HWFS MODULES AFTER THIS IMPROVEMENT WAS INSTALLED. THESE INCIDENTS RESULTED FROM A NEW FAILURE MODE ATTRIBUTED TO THE DEVICE'S THERMAL PROTECTION FEATURE. THE SIGNIFICANCE VARIES FROM MINOR DISTORTION TO CONSIDERABLE MELTING OF THE PLASTIC AROUND THE HWFS FLUID CHAMBER.
IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE HEATED WASHER MODULE TO IGNITE AND A FIRE MAY OCCUR.
DEALERS WILL PERMANENTLY DISABLE AND REMOVE THE HEATED WASHER FLUID MODULE. AN UPDATED PAGE FOR THE OWNER MANUAL WILL BE PROVIDED AND INSERTED IN THE OWNER MANUAL TO DOCUMENT THAT THE FEATURE HAS BEEN PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON JUNE 11, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT BUICK AT 1-866-608-8080, CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, SATURN AT 1-800-972-8876, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 AND HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493 OR AT THE OWNER CENTER AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.

TAKATA RECALL / GM RECALL 49152. MY WIFE & I RECEIVED THE AFOREMENTIONED RECALL FROM GM. IN THE BODY OF THE RECALL LETTER IT STATES THAT TAKATA HAD DECIDED OUR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IS DEFECTIVE. GM STATES THEY WILL ISSUE A RECALL UNLESS THE CAN PROVE THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT DEFECTIVE. SO, I CALLED GM TO SEE WHAT IS THE TIME FRAME TO COMPLETE THIS INVESTIGATION. GM COULD NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANY INFORMATION ON HOW LONG IT WOULD BE FOR GM TO FINISH IT'S INVESTIGATION. IN FACT GM DIDN'T EVEN INDICATE THEY HAVE STARTED YET. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME AS A CONSUMER. NOW I'M LEFT WITH A CAR I PURCHASED NEW FROM GM AND AM NOT ABLE TO USE THE VEHICLE FOR IT'S INTENDED PURPOSE. ONE HAS TO ASSUME THAT GM DID THEIR DUE DILIGENCE WHEN PURCHASING THE AIRBAGS AND NOW THAT A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT DECISION IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR GM. IT'S OBVIOUS TO ME THE LONGER IT TAKES FOR GM TO PROVE THE RECALL IS NOT WARRANTED THE FEWER RECALLED VEHICLES WILL BE ON THE ROAD WHICH I HAVE NO DOUBT WILL BE A BENEFIT TO GM BUT CERTAINLY NOT TO THE CONSUMER. THE SIMPLE QUESTION "HOW LONG WILL GM'S INVESTIGATION TO PROVE TO NHTSA'S SAFITSFACTION THE RECALL IS NOT NEEDED TAKE?". THIS LEAVES THE CONSUMER IN A SITUATION WITH NO IDEA OF WHEN A RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM WILL COME.

CRACKED DASH OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. VEHICLE KEPT IN IMMACULATE CONDITION BUT IT APPEARS THAT THE HEATING /COOLING CYCLE ALONG WITH SUB-PAR MATERIAL AND DESIGN MAY BE CREATING A HUGE PROBLEM FOR A GREAT MANY OF TAHOE OWNERS. THE INITIAL CRACK WAS NOTICED DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS IN NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND OVER A PERIOD OF TWO-THREE WEEKS IT PROGRESSED FROM THE SEAM BETWEEN THE TWO DASH PANELS TOWARDS THE DRIVERS POSITION. THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN WRECK, ABUSED, OR TAKEN OFF ROAD. UNKNOWN EXACTLY WHEN OR WHAT CAUSED THE DASH TO START CRACKING BUT IT SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WHICH CAN CAUSE A SAFETY ISSUE ALONG WITH A DECREASED VALUE OF THESE VEHICLES DUE TO POOR QUALITY. LOVE THE TRUCK BUT THE QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT ARE VERY POOR.
