General Motors (GM) is recalling more than 449,000 SUVs and pickup trucks due to the potential for the electronic control module to fail to display a warning light when a loss of brake fluid takes place.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the recall includes certain 2023-2024 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESVs, 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2023-2024 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban 1500, 2023 GMC Sierra 1500, 2023-2024 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL models.
Without the warning light, owners of these vehicles may unknowingly drive with low brake fluid, reducing braking performance and increasing the risk of a crash. A free software update will be provided to vehicle owners.
Notification letters are expected to be mailed Oct. 28.
