NHTSA 07V482000October 16, 2007144 units
Problem: On certain vehicles located in guam and saipan, the headlamp low beam or daytime running light (drl) function may be inoperative due to a melted splice pack (s201) on the ip harness.
Risk: Inadequate lighting could reduce visibility of the vehicle increasing the rick of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will change the headlamp low beam splicing type and separate it from splice pack 201 to protect housing melting due to potential poor contact. The recall began on january 2, 2008. Owners may contact gm daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.
Seat belts:front:buckle assembly
NHTSA 07V328000July 20, 200778 units
Problem: Certain vehicles located in guam and saipan were built with a seat belt buckle with an improper ultrasonic weld of the spring rib and fixation rib of buckle undercover in both front seat belts. A spring rib or fixation rib could break and remain inside the buckle, and the seat belt tongue may not be inserted into the buckle, or the push button may become stuck, resulting in an occupant not being able to unlatch the buckle.
Risk: These buckle malfunctions could prevent a person from using the seat belt system, and risk of injury to an unbelted person in a crash would be increased.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the front seat belt buckle. The recall began on january 2, 2008. Owners may contact gm daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.
