258,000 SUVs Being Recalled

After twenty-eight fires due to short circuits in power window and door lock switches, a recall has been issued for 258,000 SUVs.

Chevrolet Trail Blazer, GMC Envoy, Buick Rainier, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 97-X SUVs from 2006 and 2007 are all listed in the recall.

They were sold in or registered in twenty states, DC, and Canada.

The recall only affects areas where salt and or chemicals are used to clear winter roads, as the corrosive materials can get inside the driver's door and cause the short circuits which can start a fire.

Dealers will be replacing the circuitry and switches for free.

Owners can expect to receive letters informing them of when appointments can be set up.
