2014 CHEVROLET EXPRESS RECALL - #14V117000
RECALL FOR AIR BAGS : FRONTAL
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2009-2014 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana vans manufactured January 27, 2009, through March 7, 2014 with a gross vehicle weight rating of 10,000 pounds and less and equipped with front passenger air bags. In the affected vehicles, during a frontal impact below the air bag deployment threshold, if an unbelted front passenger's head hits the instrument panel above where the passenger air bag is located, the panel may not sufficiently absorb the impact. As such, these vehicles fail to meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact."

Trouble with crank , start/run relays. I have replaced the Relays and still having problems. I try to start truck and nothing happens, no
Click or sound from starter. I have called a much. He wiggles the relays and it will start. Every time there are a few days between starts I have problems. This is expensive and I need some help.
