Summary

14110 - emissions recall. General motors has decided to conduct a voluntary emission recall involving certain vehicles equipped with a 1.2l engine (rpo ll0). These vehicles may have been built with a positive crankcase ventilation (pcv) valve that may wear prematurely. If this occurs, it may cause excessive engine oil consumption, which may eventually foul a spark plug causing the illumination of the malfunction indicator lamp (mil), rough engine operation, and if uncorrected, cause engine damage and lack of engine power. Dealers are to replace the pcv valve. For vehicles that are not in dealer inventory, dealers should also clean the throttle body, clean the throttle plate, and relearn the idle. If the mil is illuminated/flashing, it may also be necessary to replace the #4 spark plug.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 97 complaints in the engine category.
