2003 PONTIAC BONNEVILLE Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2003 Pontiac Bonneville has two recalls of equal severity: a fuel leak risk during refueling that can result in a fire, and a driver's side airbag inflator that can fracture and send fragments into the cabin during a crash. The fuel recall applies only to SSEI models with the supercharged V6 engine, where a faulty fuel tank pressure sensor can damage fuel system components and allow fuel to escape when the tank is being filled. On the airbag side, the driver's inflator can crack at a weld when it deploys, meaning the bag may not fully inflate to protect the driver while broken pieces of the inflator can strike occupants.
