Consumer Description
THE CHIME IS NOT WORKING IN MY CAR. I CALLED GM ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAID THE RECALL 17130 HAS ALREADY BEEN CLOSED ON MY CAR BUT THE CHIME IS NOT WORKING. IT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH MYLINK AS OTHER THINGS ARENT WORKING EITHER. SUMMARY GENERAL MOTORS LLC (GM) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2013-2016 CHEVROLET SONIC AND TRAX VEHICLES AND 2013-2015 CHEVROLET SPARK VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A BRING YOUR OWN MEDIA RADIO. THE AFFECTED RADIOS MAY FAIL TO PROVIDE AN AUDIBLE WARNING CHIME WHEN THE DRIVER, AFTER TURNING OFF THE IGNITION AND LEAVING THE KEY IN THE CYLINDER, WAITS 10 MINUTES OR LONGER TO OPEN THE DOOR. AS SUCH, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NUMBER 114 "THEFT PROTECTION." WITHOUT AUDIBLE INDICATORS, THE DRIVER MAY LEAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, INCREASING THE RISK OF THEFT. GM'S NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS 17130.
