In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
5 safety recall campaigns, 17 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
A natural gas leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire or explosion.
In the event of a crash below the air bag deployment threshold, an unbelted front passenger seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.
A short at the connector may cause overheating, resulting in an increased risk of fire.
If a pressure relief device activates with an improperly assembled vent pipe, compressed natural gas may be vented into the passenger compartment. If an ignition source is present, an explosion or fire may result.
Two 2011 CHEVROLET EXPRESSs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
