Vehicle Description: Light duty pickup trucks equipped with electric drive.
Rapid fogging of the interior glass can occur within two minutes after the heat
is turned on if (1) the outside temperature is between 35 and 76 degrees
Fahrenheit and (2) water has collected on the heat exchanger during previous
operation of the air conditioning.
If rapid fogging were to occur during driving, it could obstruct the driver''s
vision increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Owners are being provided with a caution label and supplemental insert for their
owner''s manual advising them to follow a "Stop and Wait" procedure to help avoid
window fogging while driving.
Owner notification began during August 1998. Owners who do not receive the
caution label within a reasonable time should contact Chevrolet at
1-800-222-1020. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration''s Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
