Vehicles Affected: Approximately 20,300 model-year 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks
The Problem: The bolts used to attach the front and rear brake calipers may not have been heat-treated and may break under load, reducing brake performance or interfering with wheel rotation and increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will replace the brake caliper bolts for free.
What Owners Should Do: Chevrolet and GMC manufacturer GM will begin notifying owners April 13. Owners can call Chevrolet at 800-222-1020, GMC at 866-522-9559, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
