   Exterior Lighting / Brake Lights / Switch

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General motors is recalling 5,862 my 2000-2002 chevrolet blazer, my 2000-2001 GMC jimmy, and my 2000 oldsmobile bravada sport utility vehicles. The multifunction switch could develop an open circuit condition that results in the stop lamps and the rear hazard lamps becoming inoperative. The center high mounted stop lamp and turn signal functions are not affected.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   The loss of stop lamps and rear hazard lamps could fail to warn a following driver that the vehicle is braking and/or is stopped and could result in a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will replace the hazard switch carrier. The recall began on june 17, 2008. Owners may contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, or oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537, or through their website at <a href=http://www.gmownercenter.com>http://www.gmownercenter.com</a> . Note: this campaign is an expansion of a previous recall (please see 01v364).

3. 00V228003Received 7 Aug 2000. 156,305 units.

   Seat Belts

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Vehicle description: passenger vehicles, light duty trucks, sport utility vehicles, and mini vans equipped with trw seat belt buckle assemblies. The buckle base of these seat belt assemblies were not properly heat treated and therefore do not pass the load bearing requirement of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seat belt assemblies."

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will inspect the vehicle's safety belt buckle assembly date codes and, if necessary, will replace any safety belt buckle assembly.

4. 99V220000Received 11 Aug 1999. 3,947 units.

   Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Vehicle description: s -trucks equipped with 2 wheel drive. These vehicles may have had the right-hand antilock brake system (ABS) module feed pipe and/or brake crossover pipe tube nuts tightened without seating the pipe-flared-ends enough to withstand normal assembly and vehicle inputs without partially unseating. This does not comply with requirements of FMVSS no. 105, "hydraulic service brake normal, emergency, and park braking performance."

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If this occurred, the seating seal could be broken during vehicle assembly, or from early road inputs or brake fluid cycling, and a leak could occur increasing the brake stopping distance.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will inspect the brake pipe union for signs of brake fluid, and if necessary, install a new brake pipe union.
