   Seat Belts

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks manufactured January 29, 2013, to January 21, 2015. While entering the vehicle, the seat belt tensioner cable may be positioned such that the driver slides over it. This movement may result in the fatigue and separation of the cable.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the tensioner cable separates, the driver may not be properly restrained in the event of a crash, increasing their risk of injury.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and dealers will modify the vehicles to prevent the tensioner from being damaged. Any tensioner that has already been damaged will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on August 11, 2016. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 15822.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 15822. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 11 Jul 2016.

2. 13V544000Received 30 Oct 2015. 1,808 units.

   Equipment / Other / Labels

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Chevrolet Silverado HD, Chevrolet Express, and GMC Sierra HD vehicles, and model year 2013 GMC Savana compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles that fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 303 "Fuel System Integrity of Compressed Natural Gas Vehicles." In the affected vehicles, the text of the CNG fuel-only label is smaller than the required size, and as a result, may be less noticeable.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   Text that does not conform to the required labeling size could inhibit fuel tank inspection practices and safe refueling, increasing the risk of a fire.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners and will send them a replacement label, free of charge. The recall began December 3, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 13365.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 13365. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 3 Dec 2015.

3. 15V640000Received 9 Oct 2015. 3,073 units.

   Electrical System / Ignition

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks manufactured January 24, 2014, to February 26, 2014, 2015 Chevrolet Suburban vehicles manufactured February 12, 2014 and Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles manufactured February 6, 2014, to February 13, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the ignition lock actuator may bind, making turning the key difficult or causing the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If stuck in the "Start" position, the ignition may suddenly snap back into the "Accessory" position, causing a loss of engine, steering, and braking power, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. If the vehicle is in a crash, the air bags may not deploy, increasing the risk of occupant injury.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition lock housing, free of charge. The recall began on November 20, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 15573.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 15573. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 20 Nov 2015.

4. 14V614000Received 1 Oct 2014. 106,307 units.

   Electrical System

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Cadillac CTS, Escalade, Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Yukon, and Yukon XL, and 2014 Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Express, Impala, Silverado HD, Traverse, GMC Acadia, Savana, and Sierra HD vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the chassis electronic module may be internally contaminated, resulting in an electrical short.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the module experiences an electrical short, the vehicle could stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the chassis electronic module, free of charge. The recall began on December 26, 2014. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), and 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM’s number for this recall is 14515.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14515. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 26 Dec 2014.

5. 14V446000Received 23 Jul 2014. 124,007 units.

   Seats

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Buick Encore and Cadillac ATS; 2014 Cadillac CTS, ELR, Chevrolet Caprice and SS vehicles; and 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra Trucks. Due to an incomplete weld on the seat hook bracket assembly, the front seats in the affected vehicles may not stay secured in place during a high load condition such as a crash.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   A seat that does not stay secured increases the risk of occupant injury in a vehicle crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat hook bracket assembly weld and replace the lower seat track, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2014. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), and 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14340.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14340. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 15 Aug 2014.

6. 14V374000Received 27 Jun 2014. 392,459 units.

   Power Train / Transfer Case (4-Wheel Drive)

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra vehicles, and model year 2015 GMC Yukon and Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe vehicles. In the affected vehicles, an electrical signal short may cause the transfer case to shift to neutral without the driver's input.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the transfer case switches to neutral while the vehicle is parked and the parking brake is not in use, the vehicle may roll away increasing the risk of injury to bystanders. If the transfer case switches to neutral while the vehicle is being driven, the vehicle would lose drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and dealers will re-program the software in the transfer case control module, free of charge. The recall began in early August 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14192.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14192. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 5 Aug 2014.

7. 14V345000Received 18 Jun 2014. 184 units.

   Equipment

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Silverado vehicles manufactured May 15, 2013, to January 29, 2014, and GMC Sierra vehicles manufactured September 19, 2013, to February 8, 2014, and equipped with both optional accessory all-weather floor mats (option RPO VAV) and optional vinyl flooring (option RPO BG9). The affected vehicles built with the vinyl flooring option do not have the retention features necessary to properly secure the floor mat on the driver's side.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   The floor mat could shift such that it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, preventing its return to an idle position, which could result in unintended vehicle speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and reimburse the owner for the purchase price upon their return. The owners will also be provided an insert for their owners manual instructing them not to use floor mats, free of charge. The recall began on August 18, 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet) or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14310.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14310. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 18 Aug 2014.

8. 14V301000Received 6 Jun 2014. 57,512 units.

   Electrical System / Software

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, and 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban vehicles equipped with a base radio and an internal amplifier. The radios in the affected vehicles may become inoperative, and as a result, there would be no audible chime to notify the driver if the door is opened with the key in the ignition or no audible seat belt warning indicating the seat belts were not buckled. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention," and 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   Without an audible indicator, the driver may not be aware that the driver's door is open while the key is in the ignition, increasing the risk of a vehicle rollaway. Additionally, there would be no reminder that the driver's or front seat passenger's seat belt is not buckled, which could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the radio software, free of charge. The recall began on July 2, 2014. Chevrolet owners may contact GM's customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GMC owners may contact GM's customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 14315.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14315. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 2 Jul 2014.

9. 14V246000Received 14 May 2014. 477 units.

   Steering / Linkages / Tie Rod AssemblyDo-not-drive advisory

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Silverado vehicles manufactured May 23, 2013, through March 25, 2014, 2014 GMC Sierra vehicles manufactured May 25, 2013, through March 31, 2014, and 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles manufactured January 29, 2014, through March 27, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the tie rod threaded attachment may not be properly tightened to the steering gear rack.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   An improperly tightened tie rod attachment may allow the tie rod to separate from the steering rack, resulting in a loss of steering, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   GM notified all owners, and dealers will inspect the inner tie rods to make sure that they are correctly tightened, replacing the steering gear, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 14, 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14204. NOTE: Owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until they have been inspected and repaired. Owners should contact GM to have their vehicles towed to the dealership.

   Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14204. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 14 May 2014.

10. 14V152000Received 31 Mar 2014. 489,936 units.

    Power Train / Automatic Transmission / Cooling Unit and Lines

    Defect, in the NHTSA record

    General Motors LLC (GM ) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Silverado Light Duty Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab 1500 series and model year 2015 Suburban and Tahoe; GMC model year 2014 Sierra Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab 1500 Series and model year 2015 Yukon and Yukon XL vehicles equipped with a 6-Speed Automatic Transmission (feature code MYC). The subject vehicles may have a transmission oil cooler line that is not securely seated in the fitting.

    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    If the line is not securely seated and transmission oil leaks from the fitting, the oil could contact a hot surface and cause a vehicle fire.

    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

    GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooler line connection and repair the vehicles, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on May 19, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546 or GMC owners may contact GMC at 1-866-996-9463. GM's number for this recall is 14121.

    Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14121. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 19 May 2014.

11. 14V007000Received 13 Jan 2014. 325,213 units.

    Engine and Engine Cooling / Exhaust System

    Defect, in the NHTSA record

    General Motors is recalling certain 2014 model year Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles, and 2015 model year Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV; Chevrolet Silverado HD; and GMC Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL, equipped with a 4.3L engine or 5.3L engine.

    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    The overheated exhaust components may melt nearby plastic parts and may result in an engine fire.

    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

    General Motors will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the engine control module, free of charge. The recall began on January 16, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 and GMC at 1-800-462-8782. General Motors' number for this recall is 14008.

    Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 14008. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 16 Jan 2014.

12. 13V488000Received 17 Oct 2013. 18,972 units.

    Seats / Front Assembly / Head Restraint

    Defect, in the NHTSA record

    General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles manufactured August 1, 2013, through September 10, 2013, and equipped with manual reclining seatbacks. In the affected vehicles, either of the front seatbacks may have play. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 202a, "Head Restraints."

    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    If the vehicle is struck from behind, the head restraint may not properly protect occupants, increasing the risk of injury.

    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

    GM has notified owners. Dealers will inspect the seatback recliner mechanisms and make adjustments, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on October 23, 2013. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 and GMC at 1-800-462-8782. GM's recall number is 13323.

    Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 13323. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 21 Oct 2013.

13. 13V315000Received 19 Jul 2013. 843 units.

    Air Bags

    Defect, in the NHTSA record

    General Motors is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Silverado trucks manufactured June 1, 2013, through June 30, 2013; and model year 2014 GMC Sierra trucks manufactured June 4, 2013, through June 30, 2013. Welding on the passenger airbag inflator may fracture when the airbag is deployed, allowing some gas from the air bag inflator to vent behind the instrument panel, instead of into the air bag.

    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    As a result the air bag may not fully inflate, increasing the risk of injury.

    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

    General Motors will notify owners and dealers will replace the passenger air bag module, free of charge. The recall began on August 23, 2013. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546 and GMC at 1-866-996-9463. GM's recall number is 13230.

    Report filed by General Motors LLC. Manufacturer campaign number 13230. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 23 Aug 2013.
