The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
- Autocar is recalling certain 2013-2020 Xpeditor vehicles. The ignition relay may fail without warning, causing the vehicle to stall. A vehicle stall can increase the risk of crash. NHTSA says potentially 5,613 vehicles are affected by this recall.
- General Motors is recalling certain 2007-2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500 and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 vehicles equipped with non-desiccated, passenger frontal air bag inflators containing phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant that were used as interim remedy parts for previous Takata recalls. These inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling. An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the front passenger or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death. NHTSA says potentially 699 vehicles are affected by this recall.
