For the 2006 Chevrolet Optra. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your Chevrolet been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Chevrolet dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2006 Chevrolet Optra recalls, newest first

October 16, 2007NHTSA 07V482000144 vehicles potentially affected

Exterior lighting › Headlights

Summary
On certain vehicles located in guam and saipan, the headlamp low beam or daytime running light (drl) function may be inoperative due to a melted splice pack (S201) on the ip harness.
Consequence
Inadequate lighting could reduce visibility of the vehicle increasing the rick of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will change the headlamp low beam splicing type and separate it from splice pack 201 to protect housing melting due to potential poor contact. The recall began on January 2, 2008. Owners may contact GM daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.

July 20, 2007NHTSA 07V32800078 vehicles potentially affected

Seat belts › Front › Buckle assembly

Summary
Certain vehicles located in guam and saipan were built with a seat belt buckle with an improper ultrasonic weld of the spring rib and fixation rib of buckle undercover in both front seat belts. A spring rib or fixation rib could break and remain inside the buckle, and the seat belt tongue may not be inserted into the buckle, or the push button may become stuck, resulting in an occupant not being able to unlatch the buckle.
Consequence
These buckle malfunctions could prevent a person from using the seat belt system, and risk of injury to an unbelted person in a crash would be increased.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the front seat belt buckle. The recall began on January 2, 2008. Owners may contact GM daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.
