GM Recalling 57,100 MY 2007 Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent SUVs

GM announced a recall involving 57,100 MY 2007 Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent SUVs not equipped with optional roof rail airbags or optional sunroof. During NHTSA impact tests of these specific models, the interior occupant protection test points exceeded the standard requirements. The results of this test indicated a possibility of an increased risk of head injury in a crash. The recall is expected to begin during January 2008 with GM dealers installing an energy absorbing foam piece to each of the a-pillar trim assemblies.
