Anyone have more info on 06 H2 recall for extreme power steering turn that could break fluid line, spraying liquid that could start engine fire. Go to CNN website and reference recall section. Are the dealerships aware after owners are? It sure seems that way when you call them for the specific recall.

Here is the article, it does not specify which model years are affected.

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Separately, General Motors Corp. is recalling 123,592 pickup trucks, SUVs, vans and cars because of potential power steering problems that could lead to engine fires, NHTSA said.

NHTSA said the power steering hose, under extreme steering maneuvers, may break and leak fluid. This could result in increased braking effort and also, if the power steering fluid spray were to spray onto hot engine parts, an engine compartment fire could occur.

Vehicles affected by the recall include the Chevrolet Corvette sports car, Buick Rainer, Cadillac Escalade, Tahoe, Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Yukon, Hummer H2 and Isuzu Ascender SUVs, Chevrolet Express and Savana vans, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks. All the vehicles are from the 2006 model year, NHTSA said. The Corvette, Silverado and Sierra models from the 2005 model year are also being recalled.

Oh yes! same here.

Just for the record, with recalls the news always seems to catch wind of it before anything is officialy published to the dealerships.
