Recall Bulletin
PRODUCT SAFETY RECALL

SUBJECT:
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Electronic Control Module (ECM)
MODELS:
2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe
CONDITION

Toyota has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2003

and 2004 model year Pontiac Vibe vehicles. Pontiac Vibe was manufactured by New United

Motor Manufacturing (NUMMI), a joint venture between Toyota and GM.

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) for the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) in these

vehicles could have been manufactured with integrated circuits (ICs) that are susceptible to

short circuiting when exposed to certain electrical noise from various vehicle electrical

components.

If internal short circuiting occurs, the front airbag(s) and/or seat belt

pretensioners could inadvertently deploy. An airbag that deploys inadvertently can, under

some circumstances, increase the risk of injury and the possibility of a crash.

CORRECTION

Dealers are to install a sub-wire harness (filter) to minimize electrical noise from the other

vehicle electrical components.

VEHICLES INVOLVED

All involved vehicles are identified by Vehicle Identification Number on the Investigate Vehicle

History screen in GM Global Warranty Management system. Dealership service personnel

should always check this site to confirm vehicle involvement prior to beginning any required

inspections and/or repairs. It is important to routinely use this tool to verify eligibility because

not all similar vehicles may be involved regardless of description or option content.

For dealers with involved vehicles, a listing with involved vehicles containing the complete

vehicle identification number, customer name, and address information has been prepared

and will be provided to dealers through the GM GlobalConnect Recall Reports. Dealers will

not have a report available if they have no involved vehicles currently assigned.

The listing may contain customer names and addresses obtained from Motor Vehicle

Registration Records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any purpose other

than follow-up necessary to complete this recall is a violation of law in several
