Gm Issues Recall On 10,000 Trucks And Suvs
On Friday last, General Motors Co. announced that it is recalling more than 10,000 trucks and SUVs worldwide, to address two safety issues involving transmission and steering.
The majority of the recalls are for the 9,215 of the MY 2011 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. This recall affects 6,700 vehicles sold in the United States.
It was reported that these vehicles could roll away when shifted into park. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) it could result in a crash without a warning. The anomaly in the transmission was attributed to a faulty part manufactured in China. The defect in Colorado and Canyon vehicles was discovered when a vehicle failed to start while still at a GM assembly plant. The recall will be officially issued on the 19th of July. GM will install new automatic transmission adjustment clips.
In the second issue, GM is recalling 891 SUVs and trucks of the MY 2011 over steering problems. Of these, 739 vehicles alone are in the United States. There were reports of loose steering bolts which could result in joints separating, causing a complete loss of steering.
The 891 SUVs and trucks affected by that recall include:
* Cadillac Escalade
* Chevrolet Silverado
* Suburban
* Tahoe
* GMC Yukon
* Sierra
The recall notice will be sent to the owners of the affected vehicles on the 13th of July.
The affected vehicles will have their intermediate steering shaft bolts inspected and properly tightened to prevent loss of steering by the dealers.
According to GM, the two recalls neither involved crashes or injuries nor have they received any customer complaints regarding the defects.
