LS ECO 4dr Sedan
2014 Chevrolet Impala Recalls

NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 15V465000
RECALL DATE: 2015-07-24

SUMMARY

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Chevrolet Impala vehicles manufactured April 15, 2013, to June 19, 2015, equipped with front vented-heated passenger seats. Accordingly, the Automatic Occupant Sensing (AOS) system may fail to suppress the front passenger air bag if a child seat is in the front passenger seat. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

CONSEQUENCES

If the front passenger air bag deploys with a child seat in the front passenger seat, it increases the risk of injury to the child.

REMEDY

GM will notify owners, and dealers will correct the calibration-learning error by preconditioning the empty seat, and also resetting the ECU to a seat zero-value, free of charge. The recall began on August 25, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 15400.
