I spoke to Cheryl Rose at NHTSA nd she indicated that a decision would hopefully be made in August. She claims one of three things can happen: nothing; recall; or additional investigation. The IDM used in MY 99-02 is clearly defective -- failure rates of almost 40 percent for 2000 and 2001. However, the key issue is whether the defect is a SAFETY concern. I'm not getting my hopes up. Interestingly, my complaint to NHTSA was the only one involving a V-6 (and is not included in the data because it was made on 7/1/05) but GM indicates the IDM failure rate is similar for the 6 and 4.
