Summary<\/h3>\n

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. The battery positive (B+) cable rings may have been manufactured with excessive glue, potentially causing an intermittent electrical connection between the B+ cable and alternator.<\/p>\n

Remedy<\/h3>\n

GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect for the presence of glue or other contamination at the B+ cable attachment to the alternator and clean the connection and reattach the B+ cable connection, as necessary. If arcing has damaged the cable, nut, or alternator, the dealer will replace the damaged components. All services will be performed free of charge.<\/p>\n

The recall is expected to begin January 27th, 2020. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1.800.222.1020 or GMC customer service at 1.888.988.7267. GM’s number for this recall is N192273510.<\/p>\n
