CARS.COM

Vehicles Affected: Approximately 2,900 model-year 2018 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain SUVs, and model-year 2017-18 GMC Acadia SUVs

The Problem: The right front intermediate driveshaft may fracture and separate while driving, which will cause the vehicle to lose propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash. If the assembly separates while parked on a grade without the parking brake engaged, the vehicle may move unintentionally, increasing the risk of a rollaway.

The Fix: Dealers will replace the right front intermediate drive shaft assembly for free.

What Owners Should Do: Chevrolet and GMC manufacturer GM did not immediately announce an owner-notification schedule. Owners can call Chevrolet at 800-222-1020, GMC at 800-462-8782, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration at 888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
