Summary
General Motors (GM) is recalling certain 2019-2021 GMC Sierra 1500 and Silverado 1500 vehicles equipped with certain accessory road tires and a 17″ spare tire.

Remedy
Dealers will provide a new 17″ spare tire and wheel assembly that is compatible with the accessory wheels, free of charge. Dealers will also apply a new spare tire information label, and provide owners with an owner’s manual insert clarifying which spare tire to use with the accessory road tires and with the 17″ original tires. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 31, 2022. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-462-8782 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for Safety Recall N212346510
Mismatched Spare Tire
These questions and answers are being provided to help GM dealers respond to inquiries from involved vehicle owners about the Safety recall identified above.
Q1) Which vehicles are involved?
Certain 2019 – 2021 model year Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 17” spare tire (RPO RHM, QBR, or XCQ) and also equipped with (i) 22” accessory road tires (RPO XD5 or XAH), (ii) 20” accessory road tires (RPO XDF) or (iii) 18” accessory road tires (RPO RCP).
Q2) What is the issue or condition?
If the original 17” spare tire is installed on the vehicle opposite one of the listed accessory tires, the anti-lock braking system (ABS) may not independently control the rear wheels on low-friction surfaces.
Q3) What symptoms may be experienced? What warning signs may be associated with the issue or condition described?
If installed on opposing rear wheels in the subject vehicles, the difference in revolutions per kilometer (RPK) between (a) the original spare tire and (b) 22”, 20”, or 18” accessory road tires can interfere with the operation of the vehicle’s ABS system.
Q4) What is the remedy/repair?
Dealers will provide a 17” spare tire and wheel assembly with compatible RPK rating to owners confirmed to have the 22”, 20”, or 18” accessory road tires. Dealers will also apply a new spare tire information label over the existing tire placard label. Owners will also be provided an Owner’s Manual insert clarifying which spare tire that should be used with the 22”, 20” and 18” accessory road tires and the spare tire to be used with the 17” original tires.
Q5) What is the safety risk? Is the vehicle safe to drive?
If the ABS system cannot control the rear wheels independently on low-friction surfaces, there is an increased risk of a crash.
Q6) Does the customer have to pay for this remedy/repair?
No, this inspection/repair will be done at no cost to the customer.
Q7) Is the remedy/repair available now?
No, when a remedy is available and/or sufficient quantity of parts are available, the recall bulletin will be released, and dealers can begin repairing vehicles.
Q8) What should customers do until recall repairs can be completed? Are there any special instructions?
If special instructions are provided, they will be included in the notification letters to customers.
