General Motors is recalling 60,154 of its 2024 Buick Encore GX, 2024 Buick Envista, and 2024 Chevrolet Trax vehicles. A software error in the Virtual Cockpit Unit Module (VCU) can cause the instrument panel to intermittently go blank when starting the car or while driving. This defect means drivers may lose access to critical safety information, such as vehicle speed and warning lights. Owners will receive a free software update to fix the issue, which can be performed at a dealership or via an over-the-air update.
A blank instrument panel prevents the driver from seeing their speed or important safety warning lights, which significantly increases the risk of a crash while the vehicle is in motion.
