The Consumer Protection Authority, in cooperation with the relevant authorities, has launched a recall campaign for 95 vehicles comprising GMC Yukon, Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe, and Chevrolet Suburban models from the 2022 model year. This initiative forms part of the Authority’s ongoing efforts to monitor vehicle safety and ensure that suppliers address technical defects that may affect consumer safety.
The recall campaign includes 23 GMC Yukon vehicles, 16 Cadillac Escalade vehicles, 55 Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles, and one Chevrolet Suburban vehicle.
The recall is attributed to the possibility of a defect in the transmission control valve. Over time, this defect may result in a gradual loss of pressure within the valve, potentially causing harsh gear shifts. In rare cases, it may lead to a temporary or permanent lock-up of the rear wheels while driving, thereby increasing the risk of an accident.
Dealers will remedy the defect by installing new software for the Transmission Control Module (TCM) in the affected vehicles at no cost to consumers.
The Consumer Protection Authority affirms its continued commitment to monitoring recall campaigns in coordination with suppliers to ensure the implementation of the necessary corrective measures, thereby enhancing consumer safety and safeguarding consumer rights.
