Transport Canada recall 2024060 · manufacturer campaign N232431050

1 February 2024

Transport Canada lists: Zevo 400 2024 · Zevo 600 2023–2024 · Envision 2021–2024 · CT 4 2020–2024 · and 15 more

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the lower beam headlamps not to turn on as it becomes dark outside if the multi-function switch is in the "OFF" or "PARKING LAMP" position. This could also cause the daytime running lamps (DRLs) to turn off when the vehicle is moving. As a result, the vehicles may not meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations.

Why it matters

Headlamps and/or DRLs that don't turn on could reduce visibility, make the vehicle less visible to others and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the body control module (BCM)software.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the daytime running lamps (DRLs) may stay on when the headlamps are on. Canadian regulations require the DRLs to turn off when the headlamps are on.

Why it matters

Daytime running lamps that stay on could cause glare for oncoming drivers and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

General Motors will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the body control module (BCM) software.
