a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy
campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved
in individual problems between you, your dealer, or
General Motors.To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety

You can also obtain other information about motor
vehicle safety from the hotline.
