• 04V527000Nov 1, 2004871,473 vehicles potentially affected
  Exterior lighting › Brake lights
  Covers: GMC Envoy XL 2002–2004, Oldsmobile Bravada 2002–2004, Chevrolet Trailblazer 2002–2004 +2 more

  Reported issue: On certain sport utility vehicles, vibration and heat may cause the tail lamp/stop lamp bulb to loosen in its socket. If this occurs, the bulb may flicker and eventually become inoperative.

  Possible consequence: An inoperative brake lamp will not convey the driver's intention of stopping to drivers in following vehicles, and an inoperative rear turn signal lamp will not convey the driver's intention to turn to drivers in following vehicles. Both of these failures can increase the risk of a crash.

  Remedy: Dealers will inspect the tail lamp/stop lamp assemblies, and if necessary, replace them. The recall began on november 22, 2004. Owners should contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537, buick at 1-866-608-8080, or gmc at 1-866-996-9463.

  Visibility › Windshield wiper/washer
  Covers: GMC Envoy XL 2002–2003, Oldsmobile Bravada 2002–2003, GMC Envoy 2002–2003 +2 more

  Reported issue: Certain sport utility vehicles have windshield wiper systems that will not turn on, cease operation while in use, fail to turn off/on by themselves (moisture sensitive wiper system), or have continuous windshield washer pump operation because the presence of water within the wiper modules can either cause a short circuit or can lead to the corrosion of components within the module.

  Possible consequence: Depending on the occurrence and weather situation, driver visibility could be reduced, which could result in a crash.

  Remedy: Dealers will cover the windshield wiper module vent hole with a patch. Also, the wiper motor, circuit board, and electrical connector will be inspected to signs of water intrusion and/or corrosion and be replaced as required. The recall began july 6, 2004. Owners should contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438; oldsmobile…
