General Motors is recalling more than 449,000 of its SUVs and pickup trucks because the electronic brake control module software may fail to display a warning light when there is a loss of brake fluid.
There are 38,382 Canadian vehicles affected by the recall.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Friday that the recall covers certain model-years of the 2023-2024 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2023-2024 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban 1500, 2023 GMC Sierra 1500, 2023-2024 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL.
The agency said that without the warning light, vehicles could be driven with low brake fluid, which could reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.
Free software updates will be provided to vehicle owners.
To check if your vehicle is affected by the recall, you can visit the General Motors website and search for your vehicle identification number.
Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed by October 28. Vehicle owners can contact GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782, Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006.
