Has your Pontiac 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 Pontiac dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

May 24, 1994NHTSA 94V1000005,294 vehicles potentially affected

Seat belts › Front › Webbing

Summary
The second row, right hand shoulder belt can become "pinched" between the seat and the door frame pillar trim. The shoulder belt may not retract properly, which does not comply with the requirements of FMVSS no. 208, "occupant crash protection." the 1994 vehicles have an optional integral (built in) childseat installed next to the power sliding side door. The 1993 involved vehicles have standard seats in that same position.
Consequence
Improper shoulder belt retraction does not provide adequate protection to the seat occupant in the event of a sudden stop or collision.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the door frame pillar trim panel with a redesigned trim panel. Also, a caution label will be applied to the child seat advising the owner not to install the seat to the passenger side of a vehicle with a power sliding side door.

January 21, 1994NHTSA 94V01500022,862 vehicles potentially affected

Seat belts › Front › Retractor

Summary
The third row safety belt retractors may be installed incorrectly and may lock-up when the vehicle is on slopes of less than 15 degrees, which does not comply with FMVSS no. 209, "seat belt assemblies."
Consequence

Remedy
Dealers will remove third row safety belt retractors and reinstall them properly.
