Chevrolet Optra Diesel LS 2007

This is a very old pic i took in a dealership with a very basic camera. This is the korean-made Optra, it was very popular here, except the Diesel model, it's very rare. It was sold here until 2013 when it was replaced by the Cruze.

DEFECT #1 - EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS


Posted on: 2007-10-16
Description
On certain vehicles located in guam and saipan, the headlamp low beam or daytime running light (drl) function may be inoperative due to a melted splice pack (s201) on the ip harness.

Consequence
Inadequate lighting could reduce visibility of the vehicle increasing the rick of a crash.  

Corrective Action
Dealers will change the headlamp low beam splicing type and separate it from splice pack 201 to protect housing melting due to potential poor contact.  The recall began on january 2, 2008.  Owners may contact gm daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.

Notes
Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.  

DEFECT #2 - SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY


Posted on: 2007-07-26
Description
Certain vehicles located in guam and saipan were built with a seat belt buckle with an improper ultrasonic weld of the spring rib and fixation rib of buckle undercover in both front seat belts.  A spring rib or fixation rib could break and remain inside the buckle, and the seat belt tongue may not be inserted into the buckle, or the push button may become stuck, resulting in an occupant not being able to unlatch the buckle.

Consequence
These buckle malfunctions could prevent a person from using the seat belt system, and risk of injury to an unbelted person in a crash would be increased.

Corrective Action
Dealers will replace the front seat belt buckle.  The recall began on january 2, 2008.  Owners may contact gm daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.
