Oops: just fond this too.

General Motors has announced the recall of 181,516 units of the HHR model due to a head injury risk. The problem occurs only with vehicles not equipped with the optional head curtain side air bags.[/align] The concerned vehicles don't meet the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 201, 'Occupant Protection in Interior Impact.' Only 2006-2008 model year HHRs seem to have te defect. GM will install an energy-absorbing plastic piece to the headliner trim on all affected models. The recall is expected to start next month. The HHR is a retro-styled estate launched in 2006. It is available with a choice of three petrol engines, a 149bhp 2.2-litre unit, a 172bhp 2.4-litre engine and the topping 260bhp turbocharged 2.0-litre unit.

What a joke, it is a 6" peice of plastic about 1/16" thick- it looks like an egg carton. Make sure you ask to see it- you will not believe it.
