Recall Notes:
General motors campaign nos. Oldsmobile 75-c-4. Chevrolet 75-c-02. Two doorequipped with bucket seats. Possibility the outboard lock of the front seatback may rest on the head of the striker and prevent full engagement of thelock when the seat back is in the normal upright position. This is due to thestriker being of insufficient length. If this condition exists, and thevehicle is involved in a frontal crash, it could result in an increasedpossibility of injury to the occupant(s). (correct by inspecting andinstalling a new 3/8" longer striker to provide locking engagement).
