Check if your Vehicle has a Recall


IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL

July 2020

This notice applies to your vehicle, VIN: _____________________________________

Dear General Motors Customer:

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2020 model year Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 vehicles.  As a result, GM is conducting a safety recall.  We apologize for this inconvenience.  However, we are concerned about your safety and continued satisfaction with our products.

 

I M P O R T A N T

  • Your vehicle is involved in GM safety recall N202306490.
  • Schedule an appointment with your GM dealer.
  • This service will be performed for you at no charge.
Why is your vehicle being recalled? These vehicles may have been serviced with a replacement hood assembly containing a hood-latch striker wire that may not have been properly heat treated by the supplier.  If not properly heat treated, the striker wire may not meet GM’s hardness specifications and could, over time, fatigue and fracture.  If a striker wire fractures, the hood may open unexpectedly while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.

GM initiated a prior safety recall related to this condition in March 2020 (NHTSA Recall No. 20V142/N192284960).  The striker wires in hood assemblies used to service and remedy these vehicles may not have been properly heat treated by the supplier, producing a harder, more brittle wire that can fatigue and fracture over time.

If partially fractured, the striker wire may audibly rattle.

What will we do? Your GM dealer will replace the hood assembly.  For hoods sold over the counter, dealers will contact customers with instructions for hood replacement.  This service will be performed for you at no charge.  Because of service scheduling requirements, it is likely that your dealer will need your vehicle longer than the actual inspection and service correction time of up to 4 hours and 15 minutes.
What should you do? You should contact your GM dealer to arrange a service appointment as soon as possible.
Do you have questions? If you have questions or concerns that your dealer is unable to resolve, please contact the appropriate Customer Assistance Center at the number listed below.

 

 

Division Number Text Telephones (TTY)

GMC 1-866-996-9463 1-800-462-8583
Puerto Rico – English 1-800-496-9992
Puerto Rico – Español 1-800-496-9993
Virgin Islands 1-800-496-9994

 

If after contacting your dealer and the Customer Assistance Center, you are still not satisfied we have done our best to remedy this condition without charge and within a reasonable time, you may wish to write the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE, Washington, DC 20590, or call the toll-free Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1.888.327.4236 (TTY 1.800.424.9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.  The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Campaign ID Number for this recall is 20V324.

 

Federal regulation requires that any vehicle lessor receiving this recall notice must forward a copy of this notice to the lessee within ten days.
