What's wrong, in plain English

Some 2021-2022 Chevrolet Equinox and 2022 GMC Terrain vehicles may have a fuel pump module that does not consistently provide enough fuel to the engine. Because the fuel supply can be inconsistent, the engine may unexpectedly stall out while the vehicle is being driven, rather than running smoothly and continuously as it should.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is affected.
2. Contact a Chevrolet dealer at 1-800-222-1020 or a GMC dealer at 1-800-462-8782.
3. The fuel pump module replacement is free.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 23V013000.
