2014 BUICK LACROSSE
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
General Motors is recalling certain 2014 Buick LaCrosse vehicles manufactured between April 30, 2013, and September 1, 2013. These vehicles have a wiring splice in the driver's door that may corrode and break, which can cause the loss of an audible chime that normally alerts the driver when the door is open while the key is in the ignition. This increases the risk of vehicle rollaway. Additionally, the Retained Accessory Power module may remain active for up to ten minutes after the vehicle is turned off, allowing passengers to operate the power windows and sunroof even when the driver is not in the vehicle, which increases the risk of injury to unsupervised occupants.
To address this issue, General Motors dealers will inspect the driver door window motor harness and replace the electrical splice at no charge. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300. The recall began in August 2014, and the recall number is 14235.

Without an audible indicator, the driver may not be aware that the driver's door is open while the key is in the ignition, increasing the risk of a vehicle rollaway. If the passenger windows, rear windows, and sunroof can function when the vehicle is turned off and the driver is not in the vehicle, there is an increased risk of injury if an unsupervised occupant operates the power closures.
GM will notify owners and dealers will inspect the driver door window motor harness, and replace the electrical splice, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began August 2014. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300. General Motors number for this recall is 14235.
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Buick LaCrosse vehicles manufactured April 30, 2013, to September 1, 2013. In the affected vehicles, a wiring splice in the driver's door may corrode and break, resulting in the absence of an audible chime to notify the driver if the door is opened while the key is in the ignition. Additionally, the Retained Accessory Power (RAP) module may stay active for ten minutes allowing the operation of the passenger windows, rear windows, and sunroof. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention," and 118, "Power-Operated Window, Partition, and Roof Panel Systems."
