Powertrain
2025-03-06 · campaign 2025-118
Issue:
Over time, the transmission control valve could wear and lose pressure. If this happens, the transmission could shift harshly and could cause the wheels to lock up.
Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Safety Risk:
Wheels that lock suddenly could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the transmission control module software to detect excess wear in advance of a wheel lock up.

Safety Risk:
Headlamps and/or DRLs that don't turn on could reduce visibility, make the vehicle less visible to others and increase the risk of a crash.
