1993 BUICK SKYLARK Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1993 Buick Skylark has two recalls, both addressing the same issue: a neutral safety switch that may have cracked during installation, allowing the engine to start while the transmission is in gear and the vehicle to lurch forward or backward without warning. When this switch is fractured, it can no longer reliably confirm the transmission is in park or neutral before allowing the engine to crank. That means the car can start in drive or reverse, causing it to move suddenly and strike whatever is in its path. In some cases the cracked switch causes the opposite problem, a complete no-start condition where the engine refuses to crank at all.
