Again?
General Motors recalled another 105,000 vehicles on Friday, bringing its total recall issuances to 34 this year, NPR reports. This round targets heavy-duty Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierra full-size pickup trucks, along with Chevy Tahoe and Suburban and GMC Yukon SUVs. The vehicles may have faulty base radios, which are responsible for issuing audible warnings when a key is in the ignition and the driver’s door is open, along with an unbuckled front seatbelt. However, the company said no crashes or injuries had yet been reported as a result of the malfunction.
The latest recall comes on the heels of a multi-million vehicle recall by GM, stemming from a decades-long faulty ignition malfunction that was just made public by the company this year.
