GM's global recall includes imported Buick Enclaves in China
[March 24, 2014]
SHANGHAI (Reuters) — General Motors Co <GM.N> will recall 24,021 imported
Buick Enclave vehicles due to airbag defects, China's
quality watchdog said on Monday, as part of the U.S.
automaker's global recall over the same issue involving
over nearly 1.2 million vehicles. Starting Monday, Shanghai General Motors, GM's joint venture with SAIC Motors Corp Ltd <600104.SS>, will recall some of Buick Enclave vehicles produced between 2008 and 2013 to fix an issue that could lead to the nondeployment of side airbags, China's General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement on its website. |

A GM spokeswoman said the move was part of the
global recall announced earlier by GM. She said the company had
no further comments to make. Over the past two months, GM has recalled more than 3.1 million
vehicles in total in the United States and other markets. The
company has said that 12 people have died in accidents related
to an ignition switch problem. Included in the 3.1 million recall are 1.18 million mid-sized
crossovers to repair the airbag issue. Affected are some
2008-2009 vehicles and all 2010-2013 Buick Enclave and GMC
Acadia crossovers, some 2009 and all 2010-2013 Chevrolet
Traverses and some 2008-2009 and all 2010 Saturn Outlooks. (Reporting by Samuel Shen and Kazunori Takada; editing by Matt Driskill) [© 2014 Thomson Reuters. All rights reserved.] Copyright 2014 Reuters. All rights reserved. This material may not be published,
