GM Recalls Over 600K Chevy Silverados for Brake Pressure Issue
General Motors has issued a recall for over 600,000 vehicles due to an issue with the brake pressure leading to a fluid leak, according to USA Today.
A total of 62,468 vehicles are covered by the recall, comprised of 2019 to 2024 Chevrolet Silverado models in 4500 HD, 5500 HD, and 6500 HD. A total of 2,637 vehicles from model year 2019 are impacted.
The problem lies with the brake pressure sensor assembly, which GM has said may leak brake fluid to the brake pressure switch, leading to a short circuit and potentially a fire.
Dealers were notified by GM as of June 12, and have been instructed to replace brake pressure switch wire harnesses on impacted vehicles. Vehicle owners will be mailed letters by July 28, with another round of letters to be sent out once a repair is available. In the meantime, vehicle owners are told to park their vehicles outside and away from buildings.
GM added that these vehicles were also repaired under a previous recall, no. 23V26, and will need to be repaired again.
