Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent Recall: Personal Injury Risk Because Windshield May Not Be Retained During Accident
GM is recalling 6,213 MY 2007 Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent vehicles for failing to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 212, "Windshield Mounting." An incorrect primer may have been used when installing the windshield. The same primer may have also been applied to the liftgate glass and the side stationary glass. In the event of a crash, the windshield may not be retained to the extent required by the standard, increasing the risk of personal injuries to the vehicle occupants. Dealers will replace the windshield, the liftgate glass, and the side stationary glass.

GM Chevrolet Cobalt Recall: Possible Head Injury
GM is recalling 98,707 MY 2005-2006 Chevrolet Cobalt passenger vehicles not equipped with optional roof-mounted side impact air bags for failing to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 201, 'Occupant Protection in Interior Impact.' In a crash, head impact protection may be inadequate. Dealers will install energy absorbing plastic to the headliner trim to reduce the severity of head impacts in a crash.

GM Buick Lacrosse, Chevrolet Impala, and Pontiac Grand Prix Recall: Fire Hazard
GM is recalling 1,602 MY 2007 Buick Lacrosse, Chevrolet Impala, and Pontiac Grand Prix vehicles. The fuel tank is missing the adhesive layer that bonds the barrier layer to the outer shell of the fuel tank. With this condition, fuel and/or fuel vapors could seep out between the layers, increasing the risk of a fire. Dealers will inspect the serial number on the fuel tank and replace the fuel tank if necessary.

Chevrolet Aveo Recall: Fire Hazard 
GM is recalling 17,676 MY 2007 Chevrolet Aveo passenger vehicles equipped with a 1.6L engine. During an NCAP severe frontal crash test, the fuel line in the engine compartment developed a fracture. In addition, the crash damage caused four short circuits in the fuse block, the combination of which allowed the fuel pump to continue running and fuel leaked onto the ground. If these conditions occurred in an actual crash, a vehicle fire could occur. Dealers will replace the fuse block and install a new section of fuel line that has been redesigned free of charge.

Buick and Chevrolet Recall: Risk of Airbag Not Deploying
GM is recalling 794 MY 2005-2006 Buick Lacrosse, Rendezvous; Chevrolet MY 2004 Silverado, 2005 Tahoe, 2006 HHR, Malibu, 2005-2006 Trailblazer; Pontiac MY 2005 Montana and 2006 G6; GMC MY 2005-2006 Envoy, 2005 Sierra; and Hummer MY 2006 H3 vehicles originally built with cloth seats that were equipped with an automatic air bag passenger sensing system and later reupholstered with aftermarket leather seat cover kits. Testing has indicated that the aftermarket leather seat covers can cause the passenger sensing system to malfunction. If the passenger sensing system malfunctions, the front air bag on the passenger side may be disabled when it should be enabled, or enabled when it should be disabled. In either case, in the event of a crash that requires air bag deployment, a front passenger's level of injury may be increased.
