The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

|
Units potentially affected:
|
483,477
|
|
NHTSA campaign number:

04V110000

Defective part or component:
|
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
|
|
Description:
|
Some passenger vehicles equipped with 4.0 liter V8 engines have a condition in which the nylon tubing used in the fuel rail construction may degrade and crack. Additionally, the 1995 model year uses a unique underhood fuel return line that may crack at unusually high rates. Cracking of the fuel rail or return line tubing can result in a fuel leak into the engine compartment. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the engine fuel rail with a new stainless steel fuel rail. Dealers will also install a revised chassis fuel return line. The recall began on June 2, 2004, for 1996-1997 Oldsmobile Aurora vehicles. Owners of 1995 Cadillacs and 1996-1997 Oldsmobile Aurora were sent letters on August 6, 2004. Additional letters to owners will be forthcoming. Owners should contact Oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537.

Summary:
|
Competitive performer leads division into the future
By Professional Test Driver, NewCarTestDrive.com
We don't think the Aurora is the answer to Oldsmobile's ills, with production not expecting to exceed 50,000 units a year. However, it should set the tone for the future for GM's struggling division. For buyers, the Aurora offers the latest, much-talked-about fashion on the block at an extremely attractive price. It is a worthy - and more affordable - alternative to some of the European and Japanese luxury makes that are priced from $45,000 and up. |
|
Overview:
|
It has often been said that the Olds- mobile Aurora is a make-or-break car for Oldsmobile, which is the weakest of General Motors' car and truck divisions. Sales have slid from more than a million cars a year in the 1980s to less than 400,000 in 1993. The Aurora is an effort to recast the Oldsmobile of old, create a new image and attract younger affluent buyers who otherwise might buy imports. As such, it sets the tone for Oldsmobile for the rest of the decade. The Aurora is luxurious and expensive-looking. However, it comes in with a very competitive base price of under $32,000. Only a few options are available, so you won't ever have to spend much more than that. Our test model had optional 16-in. Michelin all-season radial tires and went for $32,390.
