DETROIT -- General Motors Corp. is recalling 207,542 Buick Regal and Pontiac Grand Prix sedans over a risk they could catch fire, and warned their owners not to park the cars in garages until they are fixed, according to the Associated Press. The automaker said Friday it is recalling the 1997-2003 Buick Regal GS and Grand Prix GTP models with 3.8-liter supercharged V-6 engines. During hard braking, drops of oil can leak from the engine onto the exhaust manifold, and fires can start if the oil gets hot enough, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on its Web site.

Todays (Sun March 16) paper does not make clear that the only models effected are the supercharged models; which will put a lot of owners of the non supercharged models(like myself) in panic mode.
Thanks for the heads up anyway.
