General Motors recalls more than 380,000 SUV units in the United States. The issue for this recall is said to be the suspension that may affect steering.
It was noted that this is the second time that General Motors recalls some of its units to fix a suspension issue. If not repaired, the vehicle could sway when on highways.
The affected GM models
General Motors announced that the models to be recalled are the older SUVs, and most of them have already been recalled in the past for the same issue. As per ABC News, the American automaker headquartered in Detroit made the decision to issue the recall after the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration launched an investigation in 2020.
The company listed 2010 to 2016 released Caddilac SRX model and Saab 9-4X SUV from 2011 to 2012. The latter was made by Saab that General Motors previously owned.
In any case, as mentioned earlier, a number of these vehicles were already recalled, and the first time was in September 2014. It was only in November 2020 when the NHTSA opened a probe about this problem after receiving nine complaints from owners. Three people were reported to have been hurt in connection with the vehicle defect, and there were two crashes as well.
The defect in GM cars
Based on the documents from the investigation by the NHTSA, the rear suspension toe link adjuster may not have been properly tightened. This could result in a loose toe link, and it may not be able to keep the rear suspension stable. The tires could sway at this rate since they can’t hold it to the ground anymore.
General Motors will notify the owners about the recall starting Aug. 9. To fix the defect, authorized dealers must replace the adjustable toe link with a non-adjustable one. Of course, the service and replacement will be for free.
“The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notified GM about its own field reports of these problems in early June 2021 and expressed its view on problems associated with the initial recall,” the Consumer Reports stated. “All vehicles in the first recall are included in this new one, along with additional model years.”
