Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

General Motors is recalling five 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV and 2024-2025 GMC Sierra EV pickup trucks due to a manufacturing error. The bolt securing the rear center seat belt assembly to the vehicle's seat structure may not have been tightened correctly. GM will ensure the bolt is properly tightened for all affected vehicles, which are currently located in dealer inventory.

Risk

An improperly tightened bolt may cause the seat belt to fail during a collision, preventing the occupant from being properly restrained. This significantly increases the risk of serious injury or death in the event of a crash.

What You Should Do

  1. Confirm if your vehicle is affected by checking its VIN on the NHTSA website or contacting your dealer, specifically looking for 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV and 2024-2025 GMC Sierra EV models.
  2. GM has indicated that all affected vehicles are currently in dealer inventory; if you are in the process of purchasing one of these models, verify with the dealer that recall N242489901 has been completed.
  3. Follow the official remedy: "GM will tighten the bolt that attaches the center seat belt assembly to the rear seat structure, free of charge. All affected vehicles are still in dealer inventory and, therefore, no owner letters will be mailed."
  4. If you have already taken delivery of one of these vehicles or have questions, contact GM customer service at 1-888-988-7267 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 referencing recall number N242489901.
  5. For further assistance, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153).
