Recall Roundup: Problems with Sports Cars and Large Vans

Recall?documents filed recently with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration include reports of defects in a diverse group of vehicles including sports cars and full-size carco?vans.

Sports car maker Lotus Cars is?recalling certain Elise models from the?2011?model year to fix a potential problem with their turn signal lights.

The company said the cars were fitted with turn signal modules that are not compatible with their revised headlight assemblies that include integral front turn signals. The incompatible parts can cause the turn signal lamp?to?flash erratically when the driver presses the?hazard warning switch.

The problem can also cause?other exterior lights to operate improperly. Lotus said the problem affects 52 cars built from?June 2010 through February 2011. Under the recall Lotus dealers?will replace the turn signal module free of charge.?Owners can contact the car maker at 800-245-6887.

General Motors Co. is recalling certain Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana vans from the?2012 model year because the second stage of their dual-stage air bags will not inflate in a severe frontal impact. As a result, the bags do not meet federal safety requirements and increase the risk of injury in a crash. The recall affects 1,798 vehicles.

GM said its?dealers will install a new front passenger air bag free of charge. The?recall is expected to begin this month. Owners can contact GMC at 800-462-8782 or Chevy at 800-222-1020.

Ford Motor Co. is?recalling certain replacement fuel tanks that may have been installed in?E-Series full-size vans from the?2004 through 2008 model years. The affected fuel tanks have an extra?sensor hole?that may?not be properly sealed and could?leak fuel and cause a potential fire hazard. The recall includes 17 vehicles.

Under the recall Ford?dealers will replace the fuel tanks free of charge. The?recall is expected to begin on or about Nov. 28. Owners may contact Ford at?800-232-5952.
