Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

General Motors is recalling approximately 5,486 vehicles across various 2025-2027 Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC models because the electronic owner's manual may be missing from the vehicle's radio system. This occurs because the radio may not have been set to the correct status to download the manual during production. Dealers will reset the vehicle radio to facilitate an automatic download of the manual free of charge.

Risk

Without access to an owner's manual, drivers may not know how to safely operate vehicle safety features or occupant protection systems, which increases the risk of injury during a crash.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the NHTSA.gov website to see if your specific vehicle is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, or GMC dealer to schedule a free appointment to have your vehicle's radio reset, which will allow the electronic owner's manual to download automatically.
  3. If you have questions, contact GM customer service at 1-866-467-9700, Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or Cadillac customer service at 1-800-333-4223, referencing recall number N252540430.
  4. Call the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov for more information.
