GENERAL Motors Co said it would recall about 5,000 heavy duty vans built in February and March and halt production and sale because of a risk of engine fires due to a suspected faulty alternator.
GM said in a notice last Friday it was still determining how to fix the issue, which affects heavy-duty 2010 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana passenger and cargo vans.
Owners should stop driving the vans, park them away from buildings and other vehicles and disconnect both battery cables, according to GM.
The vans cannot be rented by fleet customers or sold by dealers until a solution is found, GM said. It did not give any indication as to when it would determine a fix for the problem.
GM said relatively few of the vans had been sold to retail customers and about 1,300 had gone to fleet customers when it issued the order to stop their sale and production.
Light duty Express and Savana vans use a different alternator and were not under a production halt, GM said.
