Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

The defect: AT LOW AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, WITH THE PARKING BRAKE APPLIED ABD THE ENGINE RUNNING, PRESSURE CAN BUILD UP SUFFICIENTLY TO PARTIALLY PRESSURIZE THE BRAKE CHAMBER WHICH CONTROLS THE DDM PARK BRAKE AT THE REAR OF THE TRANSMISSION ALLOWING THE PARKING BRAKE TO PARTIALLY RELEASE.
The risk: IF THE VEHICLE IS PARKED ON A MODERATE INCLINE, THE VEHICLE CAN ROLL AWAY WITHOUT WARNING AND POSSIBLY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL RE-PLUMB THE HYDRAULIC LINES OF THE HYDRAULIC PARK BRAKE SYSTEM PREVENTING UNINTENTIONAL RELEASE OF THE PARK BRAKE.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
