Tracker 4x4 L4-1.6L SOHC TBI (1994)
General Motors has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 1993-94 Geo Tracker model vehicles. Some of these
vehicles have a rear axle shaft housing tube that was incorrectly welded and could fracture. Fracture of the rear axle shaft housing tube could result in a
loss of rear braking and affect vehicle control.
WHAT WE WILL DO
To prevent the possibility of this condition occurring, your dealer will inspect the rear axle assembly on your vehicle and, if necessary, replace the
complete rear axle assembly. This service will be performed for you at no charge.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
Please contact your Chevrolet/Geo dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service date and so the dealer may order the necessary parts for the repair.
Instructions for making this inspection/correction have been sent to your dealer and parts are available. The labor time necessary to perform this
inspection is approximately ten minutes. If rear axle replacement is required, replacement will require approximately two hours. Please ask your dealer if
you wish to know how much additional time will be needed to schedule and process your vehicle.
Your Chevrolet/Geo dealer is best equipped to obtain parts and provide service to ensure that your vehicle is corrected as promptly as possible. If,
however, you take your vehicle to your dealer on the agreed service date, and they do not remedy this condition on that date or within five (5) days, we
recommend you contact the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center by calling 1-800-222-1020.
After contacting your dealer and the Customer Assistance Center, if you are still not satisfied that we have done our best to remedy this condition without
charge and within a reasonable time, you may wish to write the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 400 Seventh Street,
S.W., Washington, D.C. 20590 or call 1-800-424-9393 (Washington D.C. residents use 366-0123).
The enclosed owner reply card identifies your vehicle. Presentation of this card to your dealer will assist in making the necessary inspection/correction in
the shortest possible time. If you have sold or traded your vehicle, please let us know by completing the postage paid reply card and returning it to us.
We are sorry to cause you this inconvenience; however, we have taken this action in the interest of your safety and continued satisfaction with our
products.
