| NHTSA Campaign ID | 14V490000 |
| Summary | General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2002-2004 Saturn Vue vehicles manufactured September 11, 2001, to April 6, 2004. In the affected vehicles, it may be possible for the key to be removed from the ignition when the ignition is not in the 'Off' position. |
| Consequence | If the key can be removed from the ignition when the ignition is not in the 'off' position, the vehicle could roll away: (a) for an automatic transmission, if the transmission is not in the 'Park' position; or (b) for a manual transmission, if the parking brake is not engaged and the transmission is not in the 'Reverse' position. This potential for rollaway increases the risk for a crash and occupant or pedestrian injuries. |
| Remedy | GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicle to see if the key can be pulled out when the ignition is off. If it can, dealers will replace the ignition cylinder and keys, free of charge. The recall began in October 2014. Owners may contact Saturn customer service at 1-800-553-6000. GM's number for this recall is 14506. Note: Until a vehicle has been remedied, owners and operators are advised that when exiting, to be sure that the vehicle is in 'Park,' or in the case of a manual transmission, that the vehicle is in the 'Reverse' position and the parking brake is engaged. |
| Notes | Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. |

| Consequence | IF THESE BOLTS WERE INCORRECTLY INSTALLED, THEY WOULD NOT WITHSTAND THE LOAD REQUIREMENTS OF THE STANDARD. IF AN ANCHORAGE FAILED IN A CRASH, THE OCCUPANT WOULD NOT BE PROPERLY RESTRAINED AND COULD HAVE AN INCREASED RISK OF INJURY. |
| Remedy | DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE REAR SHOULDER GUIDE ANCHOR BOLTS. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN DECEMBER 19, 2001.
