NHTSA Recall Number: 15V701 Recall Date: October 21, 2015 Manufacturer Recall Number: N150757

SUMMARY: has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain of the following vehicles equipped with a 3.8L (Regular Production Option L26, L32, L36 or L67): 1997 – 2004 model year (MY) Regal, 2000 – 2004 MY , 1998 – 1999 MY , 1998 – 2004 MY Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 1998 – 1999 MY Intrigue, and 1997 – 2004 MY Grand Prix. Certain of these vehicles have a condition in which drops of engine oil may be deposited on the exhaust manifold through hard braking. This condition could cause an engine compartment fire. Certain of these vehicles produced before June 26, 2003 were subject to General Motors’ prior safety recalls 08V­118 (07035), 09V­116 (09047) and 15V­201 (14574). In some cases, the remedy procedure performed on these vehicles pursuant to the prior recalls may not be sufficient to prevent subsequent engine compartment fires relating to this condition in the affected vehicles. Vehicles previously repaired under the referenced recalls will receive further repairs as part of this recall.

SAFETY RISK: If drops of engine oil are deposited on a hot exhaust manifold, an engine compartment fire could occur.

REMEDY: Dealers will replace the engine’s front valve cover and front valve cover gasket free of charge. The engine’s plastic “beauty” cover and plastic oil fill tube extension will be removed, if they haven’t been already, also free of charge.
