2003 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX -- GM is recalling 207,542 MY 1997-2003 Buick regal and Pontiac Grand Prix vehicles equipped with a 3.8L supercharged V-6 engine. Engine oil can leak from the front valve cover and can migrate due to maneuvers such as hard braking.

Due to parts availability, owner notification letters will be mailed in two phases. The customer letters for the 1997-2000 model year vehicles will be mailed on April 28, 2008. GM will advise as to when the owner letters for the 2001-2003 model year vehicles will be mailed. Until sufficient parts become available, GM strongly recommends that owners observe the following important precautions (1) they strongly recommend that owners do not park their vehicle in a garage, car port, or other structure; (2) if owners notice a burning odor, they should have their dealer inspect the vehicle. The dealer will inspect the vehicle without charge; (3) use premium fuel (91 octane or higher) in the vehicle as recommended in the vehicle's owner manual. Owners may contact Buick at 1-866-608-8080 or Pontiac at 1-800-620-7668. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #08V118000 »
