GM Issues Three Recalls
PITTSBURGH (KDKA/AP) -- Another recall from General Motors.
Officials are recalling 117,000 vehicles for a problem that may cause the vehicle to stall or not start.
The company says part of the vehicle's electronic system could short circuit, because small metal fragments may get in the way.
Drivers may see a warning light pop up on their dash – or the car may stall.
The recall affects some 2013 and 2014 SUVs and crossovers.
So far, no crashes or injuries have been reported.
General Motors will replace the faulty control module if your vehicle is affected.
Cars affected include:
-- 2013 AND 2014 CHEVROLET TAHOE
-- 2013 AND 2014 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN
-- 2013 AND 2014 CADILLAC C-T-S
-- 2013 AND 2014 G-M-C YUKON AND YUKON X-L
-- 2013 AND 2014 CADILLAC ESCALADE AND ESCALADE E-S-V
-- 2014 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE
-- 2014 G-M-C ACADIA
-- 2014 BUICK ENCLAVE
-- 2014 CHEVROLET EXPRESS
-- 2014 GMC SAVANA
-- 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO H-D
-- 2014 GMC SIERRA H-D
General Motors also announced two more recalls, pushing its total for the year to more than 70, affecting almost 30 million vehicles in North America.
The biggest of Friday's recalls covers just over 290,000 Cadillac SRX and Saab 9-4X SUVs in the U.S. The company says some rear suspension nuts may not have been tightened properly. That could cause the toe link adjuster to separate from the suspension, possibly causing a crash.
The recall affects SRXs from the 2011 through 2015 model years and Saabs from the 2011 and 2012 model years. GM says the problem has caused three crashes and two injuries.
The other recall covers over 89,000 Chevrolet Spark mini-cars from 2013 through 2015. Rust can cause a hood latch to stick, and the hood can open unexpectedly.
