2016-2018 Chevrolet Cruze: Recall Alert
Vehicles Affected: Approximately 112,000 model-year 2016-18 Chevrolet Cruze LS cars equipped with a gas engine and a tire inflator kit instead of a spare tire
The Problem: The vehicles may leak gasoline following a rear-impact crash and a rollover, which in the presence of an ignition source, increases the risk of fire.
The Fix: Dealers will install a lock ring on the fuel tank that will shield the fuel tank vapor pressure sensor from damage in a rear-impact crash for free.
What Owners Should Do: Chevrolet manufacturer GM has not yet provided an owner-notification schedule. Owners can call the automaker at 800-222-1020, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit NHTSA’s website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
