What is wrong

On certain sport utility vehicles, contamination on ignition relay contacts can cause high resistance. This can affect signals to the powertrain control module and, could cause intermittent vehicle stalls at any time.

The risk

The vehicle cannot be restarted immediately. If this were to occur, it could result in a vehicle crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the ignition relay free of charge. The recall began on may 4, 2005. Owners may contact pontiac at 1-[removed] and buick at 1-[removed].
