General Motors has announced the recall of 90,000 vehicles. The models included in the recall are the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent, the 2001 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra — equipped with the 8.1L engine — and any 2001 model year Saturn L-Series cars with the 2.2L engine.
GM is recalling 57,100 Equinox and Torrent SUVs that were not equipped with roof air bags or a sunroof to install more foam in the windshield pillars to decrease the risk of a head injury in the event of a crash.
11,974 Silverado and Sierra pickup trucks are being recalled to fix a faulty crankshaft position sensor, which could cause the engine to stall.
The recall of 20,514 Saturn L-Series cars is due to a timing chain that could separate while the engine is running.
The recalls are set to begin next month. No accidents have been reported due to the recalled items.
