General Motors, with just over 2 months left to hit the magical recall century mark, has now reached 76 recalls this year and surpassed 30 million vehicles in North America.


We missed numerous recalls given that our final update, so here are a couple of of the most current highlights (the full list, maintained by GM’s press workplace, is right here but does not incorporate the recall for the Corvette Stingray).


4teen 2013–2014 models have what GM calls “chassis handle module contamination,” in which a single of the laptop modules can quick-circuit due to “metallic slivers” and lead to the cars to stall or not start. A check-engine or “Service Trailer Brake” message could seem. Integrated are the Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Traverse, Express, and Silverado HD the Cadillac CTS, Escalade, and Escalade ESV the Buick Enclave and the GMC Acadia, Savana, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL. A total of 97,540 cars are affected in the U.S., of which 4500 are on dealer lots.


Practically 290,000 Cadillac SRX models from 2010–2015 have loose nuts in the rear-suspension toe-adjuster link that can cause the SUVs to sway or wander in the lane at highway speeds. This may inadvertently activate the stability handle, generate loud noises over bumps, and trigger the link to separate entirely. Also included in this recall is the rare-as-moon-rocks Saab 9-4X from 2011–2012, of which barely a couple of hundred have been built prior to GM sold Saab in 2010. By July of this year, GM had recorded 99 reports and warranty claims relating to the rear suspension on 2010–2012 SRX models and later decided to problem a recall. Dealers will replace the hyperlinks or tighten the nuts as essential at a later date.


An additional 89,294 Chevrolet Spark models from 2013–2015 have secondary hood latches that can rust and cause the striker to disengage (these latches are what catch the hood soon after a person has pulled the primary release inside the auto). Given that July 31—after getting reports of hoods opening even though Sparks had been driving in Europe and 10 warranty claims for rust in the U.S.—GM has applied an enhanced anticorrosion spray to the latches. Dealers will replace the latch and striker at a later date.




A lot more ignition-switch troubles have an effect on the 2008–2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011–2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Automobile models. The keys are similar to the integrated, retractable crucial blade utilized on the Camaro, which was recalled in June for the potential that a driver’s knee can bump the key out of the run position. In contrast to these repairs, the G8 and Caprice keys will not be separated from the remote fob new essential blades will be cut and reattached. A total of 46,873 vehicles are impacted in the U.S. Of these cars, 7598 (all of them Caprice PPVs) have faulty transmission interlocks that can let the driver shift out of park with no hitting the brake or take away the essential with no engaging park. No injuries or accidents have been reported from any of these recalls.
