The Nation : Agency Seeks GM Recall
- Share via
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is asking General Motors Corp. to recall 1.75 million A-cars because of “significant safety problems” involving rear brake lockup. The agency urged the auto maker to repair the brakes of 1982-84 models of the Chevrolet Celebrity, Buick Century, Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera and Pontiac 6000. The agency cited 448 complaints, 69 accidents and 23 injuries in a letter to GM. “GM does not believe such action is warranted,” a GM spokesman said, adding that the auto maker will respond to the agency in the next few weeks.
