2014 Chevrolet Caprice recalls

Seats

NHTSA campaign 15V636000 · reported October 9, 2015 · General Motors LLC · 23 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Caprice vehicles manufactured August 14, 2013, to February 3, 2014, and Chevrolet SS vehicles manufactured August 15, 2013, to February 16, 2014. The affected vehicles received replacement seat base assemblies during repair service, but during the work, the seat position target bracket may not have been transferred from the old seat to the new one. Without the seat position target bracket, the air bag may deploy at a higher intensity than necessary.
The risk
An air bag that deploys at a higher than intended level increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and, if necessary, install a seat frame equipped with a target bracket, free of charge. The recall began on December 28, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 15567.

Seats

NHTSA campaign 14V446000 · reported July 23, 2014 · General Motors LLC · 124,007 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Buick Encore and Cadillac ATS; 2014 Cadillac CTS, ELR, Chevrolet Caprice and SS vehicles; and 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra Trucks. Due to an incomplete weld on the seat hook bracket assembly, the front seats in the affected vehicles may not stay secured in place during a high load condition such as a crash.
The risk
A seat that does not stay secured increases the risk of occupant injury in a vehicle crash.
The fix
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat hook bracket assembly weld and replace the lower seat track, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2014. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), and 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14340.

Visibility: windshield wiper/washer

NHTSA campaign 14V375000 · reported June 27, 2014 · General Motors LLC · 4,794 vehicles potentially affected

The problem

In the affected vehicles, the windshield wiper motor gear teeth may strip causing the windshield wipers to become inoperative.
The risk
Inoperative wipers will not clear rain or snow, reducing the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the wiper module assembly and replace any affected ones, free of charge. The recall began on August 22, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 14295.
