Do you own a 95-97 GM car? If so it might be effected
THE VEHICLES RECALLED are the model year 1995-97 Chevrolet Cavalier and Pontiac Sunfire and 1996-97 Buick Skylark, Pontiac Grand Am, and Oldsmobile Achieva passenger cars.
GM said these vehicles will be serviced to prevent high electrical current flow through the ignition switch that may cause a fire in the steering column.
The auto giant said there are no reports of a fire caused by this condition while these vehicles are being driven. Most of the incidents occurred within minutes of an unsuccessful attempt to start the car, and there have been some claims of smoke inhalation. Some of the incidents occurred after the car had been unattended for a longer time, GM said.
“The ignition switch may deteriorate if the engine fails to crank and the driver holds the key in the ‘start’ position for an extended period. High current flows through the ignition switch and sometimes produces enough heat to melt internal switch parts,” said Lori Queen, GM small car vehicle line executive.
