GM recalls some Sierra and Silverado trucks

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling 9,279 model year 2015-2016 GMC Sierra 1500 and Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500, and Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500 trucks. The roof-rail air bag (RRAB) inflator end cap may detach from the inflator.

If the end cap separates from the inflator, the compressed gas will escape and the end cap can be propelled into the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or a crash.

Remedy
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the RRAB modules on the left and/or right side, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin January 10, 2021. Owners may contact GMC customer service at 1-888-988-7267 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM’s number for this recall is N202309680.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153).

Hi, Tonya. Go to this website https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls and put in your truck’s VIN. It should tell you whether there have been any recalls or not. Good luck. 🙂 —Diane at RVtravel.com
