General Motors is recalling 62,468 of its 2019-2024 Chevrolet Silverado Medium Duty trucks (4500HD, 5500HD, and 6500HD models). A defect in the brake pressure sensor assembly can allow brake fluid to leak into the brake pressure switch, which may cause an electrical short circuit. To fix this issue, dealers will replace the brake pressure switch wire harness at no cost to vehicle owners.
A short circuit in the brake pressure switch can cause the electrical circuit to overheat, creating a high risk of fire whether the truck is being driven or is parked. Because of the potential for fire, owners are advised to park their vehicles outdoors and away from buildings until the necessary repairs are completed.
You have 2 options:
Replacement of the brake pressure switch wire harness.
Precautionary parking advisory.
Vehicles previously repaired under recall 23V266 also require this new remedy (N242482680).
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
