GM has issued a wide-ranging recall for several brands and models from the 2009 model year, all affected by a potential malfunction in the transmission shift cable, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Affected models include the Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Cobalt, Chevrolet HHR, Chevrolet Malibu, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, Pontiac G5, Pontiac G6, Saturn Aura and Saturn Outlook.
The problem has to do with a clip to the transmission cable, which may not lock into place. Therefore, the lever on the transmission may seem like it’s in the proper position when in Park, but the car might still roll away.
Dealerships will inspect the cable and replace the clip if necessary, free of charge. Owners can contact Buick at 866-608-8080, Chevrolet at 800-630-2438, GMC at 866-996-9463, Pontiac at 800-620-7668 and Saturn at 800-972-8876. They can also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236.

Subaru is recalling 15,633 Baja sport-trucks from the 2005 and 2006 model years to fix faulty fuel system hardware. The fuel pump nipple may crack leading to a fuel leak and fire if near any kind of ignition source.

Dealers will replace all necessary parts with a stronger design free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in September. Owners can contact Subaru at 800-782-2783 and reference recall No. WVJ-20 or visit the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration's website to learn more about recall No. 09V277000.

Ford has issued a recall notice for certain 2009 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs, in order to correct a brake lamp defect that could lead to an accident.

In a defect notice filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Ford explains that, in affected vehicles, "The brake stop lamp switch may be improperly adjusted. This may result in a delay in brake stop lamp illumination when the brake pedal is depressed." If a driver presses lightly on the brakes to stop gradually, "the brake stop lamps may not illuminate."

Dealers will adjust the switch free of charge in an attempt to correct the problem. Owners should receive a notice in the mail beginning July 6, but those who wish to make their own repair arrangements may contact Ford at 1-866-436-7332, or http://www.ownerconnection.com.
