Airbag

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM), which controls airbag and pretensioner deployment, contains a software defect which may prevent the deployment of frontal airbags and pretensioners in certain circumstances. Failure of frontal airbags and seatbelt pretensioners to deploy in a crash (when warranted) could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will reflash the SDM with new software. In vehicles with any previous deployment events recorded in the SDM, the dealers will replace the existing SDM with a new SDM containing the latest software. Note: This recall affects 2014-2017 model year Sierra LD/Silverado LD models and 2015-2016 model year Sierra HD/Silverado HD model vehicles.

Safety Risk

Electrical

Issue Description

Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 114 - Theft Protection and Rollaway Protection, and/or CMVSS 118 - Power-Operated Window, Partition and Roof Panel Systems. A wiring splice in the driver's door may corrode and break, allowing the power windows and sunroof (if equipped) to function temporarily with the key removed, increasing the risk of injury to unsupervised occupants. This could also disable the audible warning if the key is in the ignition, increasing the risk of theft and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers are to inspect the door wiring harness and install a splice if necessary.

Brakes

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the front brake assembly may have been equipped with a rear brake rotor instead of a front one. During braking, higher heat will be generated by the thinner rear brake rotor which will significantly shorten the brake pad life. As the pads and rotor wear, the outer brake pad may come disengaged resulting in reduced brake system performance increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect both front brake rotors, and install new rotors and brake pads if necessary.
