GM vehicles may be missing the electronic owner's manual low

Reported Feb 26, 2026 · Campaign 26V114000 · Model years: 2026

General Motors is recalling a wide range of Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC and Buick vehicles, including the Escalade IQ and IQL, OPTIQ, Colorado, Equinox EV, Silverado 3500, Canyon and Sierra 3500. During production, the radio may not have been set to the correct status to download the electronic owner's manual, so the manual is not there for the owner to use. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet the federal safety standard covering occupant protection.

Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse Side Air Bag Wiring high

Reported Mar 31, 2022 · Campaign 22V210000 · Model years: 2021, 2022

On certain Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave vehicles, the electrical connector for the wiring harness leading to the roof rail (side curtain) air bag may have terminals that don't fit together correctly. If the connection isn't right, the roof rail air bag on that side of the vehicle may not deploy the way it's supposed to in a crash.

Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave got wrong airbag software high

Reported Jun 24, 2021 · Campaign 21V472000 · Model years: 2021

GM is recalling certain Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave vehicles. When these vehicles were serviced at a dealership, some of them may have been given incorrect software settings for the air bag system. Because the settings are wrong, the front air bags may not work the way they are meant to. A dealer needs to load the correct air bag software onto the vehicle, and there is no charge for that work.

GM Vehicles Recalled for Over-Cured Tire Failure Risk critical

Reported Feb 25, 2021 · Campaign 21V115000 · Model years: 2020

The tires on these vehicles were left in the curing process for too long during manufacturing. Tires that are cured too long can develop a break in the sidewall, which can cause sudden air loss, or the tire's belt edge can separate, causing the tread or belt to come apart. Either problem can cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

GM trucks and SUVs recalled for overcured tires high

Reported Nov 5, 2020 · Campaign 20V684000 · Model years: 2020

This recall covers certain Buick Enclave, Cadillac XT5, GMC Acadia, and Chevrolet Traverse vehicles, along with certain Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. These vehicles may have been built with Continental tires that were overcured during manufacturing.

GM transmission bolts missing, leak and fire risk critical

Reported Oct 29, 2020 · Campaign 20V668000 · Model years: 2019, 2020

On certain GM vehicles, the endcap on the start/stop transmission accumulator may be missing bolts. This can let transmission fluid leak out. Over time, the leak can get bad enough that the vehicle loses the ability to move forward. If the leaking fluid comes into contact with something that can ignite it, it could catch fire.

GM SUVs' Fuel Pump Blockage Can Stall Engine high

Reported Oct 15, 2020 · Campaign 20V639000 · Model years: 2020

In some of these vehicles, a leftover piece of plastic from manufacturing may be stuck in the fuel pump's nozzle. This can block the nozzle and keep enough fuel from reaching the engine. When that happens, the engine may not get the fuel it needs to keep running. GM will have dealers replace the fuel pump module to fix the problem, at no cost to owners.

GM SUVs, Trucks: Roof-Rail Air Bag May Underperform high

Reported Jul 30, 2020 · Campaign 20V446000 · Model years: 2020

On affected vehicles, a part called the diffuser, inside the roof-rail air bag inflator, may not have been properly attached to the inflator. This means the diffuser could come apart from the inflator when the air bag deploys.

Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse Frame Rail Crack high

Reported Sep 6, 2019 · Campaign 19V643000 · Model years: 2020

Some Buick Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse vehicles may have a crack in the frame rail on the right side of the engine compartment.
