Recall 96I001000: Horn Assembly Defect

This is not a safety recall in accordance with Federal Regulation 573. However, it is deemed a safety improvement campaign by the agency. These vehicles were built with insufficient retention of the horn pad. The horn pad can separate from the steering wheel falling between the steering wheel spokes. The horn pad could become jammed between the steering wheel spokes and the turn signal lever, resulting in damage to the turn signal lever, horn pad, and horn wiring. Dealers will modify the horn pad retention clips, install horn pad retention brackets to the steering wheel, reinstall the horn pad and assure that the hornpad is properly retained.

NOTE: General Motors has decided to conduct a safety improvement campaign to modify the horn pad on these vehicles. Owners can contact Chevrolet at1-800-222-1020.
