Thanks for the post tru!

Every time I see a recall I wonder when and how much did the car company know before they notified owners of the problem!

This recall is from an earlier recall they did on these cars that FAILED to fix the problem in the FIRST place. NOW they are scrambling to FIX IT AGAIN.
As soon as I know more information, I'll try and post it.

YOU can always go to SAFERCAR.GOV and type in your VIN(vehicle Identification Number) and do a search but at this time, the current Fire Hazard Recall is NOT listed on the NHTSA website so It probably won't pull it up but doesn't hurt to check your vin. You never know if you weren't notified of one.

Yet again, General Motors says they need to fix a bunch of cars they’ve manufactured and sold because they leak oil and pose a fire risk. Affected models are: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala, 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina and 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue and 1997-2004 Buick Regal

GM Recalls 1.4 Million Cars Over Fire Risk

This will be the third time GM is asking drivers of about 1.4 million of their cars to bring vehicles in for service due to leaky oil that can catch fire, in some cases while in the garage.

The defect, mainly in Chevys but also discontinued Oldsmobiles, was first discovered in 2007. But two repair jobs since haven’t fixed the problem.

This recall comes as Fiat-Chrysler is calling back close to 200,000 Jeep SUVs and Dodge Pickups for fire hazards and broken rear axles. Though the company says the affected pickups are new models mostly still at dealer lots.
