Government
If you believe that your vehicle
has a defect which could cause
a crash or could cause injury or
death, you should immediately
inform the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) in addition to notifying
General Motors.
If NHTSA receives similar
complaints, it may open an
investigation, and if it finds that
a safety defect exists in 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 call
the Vehicle Safety Hotline
toll-free at 1-888-327-4236
(TTY: 1-800-424-9153); go to

Vehicle Data
Recording and
Privacy
Your vehicle, like other modern
motor vehicles, has a number of
sophisticated computer systems that
monitor and control several aspects
of the vehicle performance. Your
vehicle uses onboard vehicle
computers to monitor emission
control components to optimize fuel
economy and to provide anti-lock
braking and to help the driver
control the vehicle in difficult driving
situations. These computers and
your vehicle's Data Recording
Module (DRM) also store
information about the performance
and status of certain systems in
your vehicle including the engine,
throttle, and braking systems.
General Motors and its affiliates, as
well as service and repair facilities
may access or download and share
this information via a direct
connection to your vehicle in order
to diagnose and repair problems
and properly service the vehicle.
