GM recall overview:
- Who: General Motors (GM) has recalled more than 90,000 Cadillacs and Chevrolets.
- Why: The vehicles may have faulty transmissions.
- Where: The GM recall is active in the United States.
General Motors has recalled more than 90,000 Cadillac and Chevrolet vehicles due to a transmission issue that can cause the front wheels to lock while driving.
The GM recall was published to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website on March 6. It applies to 90,081 vehicles, including certain 2019-2020 Cadillac CT6, 2020-2021 CT4, CT5, and 2020-2022 Chevrolet Camaro vehicles equipped with a 10-speed transmission.
According to the recall, the transmission may become damaged internally and cause the front wheels to lock-up.
“Wheel lock-up while driving increases the risk of a crash,” the GM recall says.
So far, GM has identified 115 field reports alleging a lock-up potentially related to the transmission issue, including one alleged accident. GM is not currently facing a legal action due to this recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they can sometimes result in legal action.
GM offers free fix, recall says
To fix the issue, dealers will install transmission control module monitoring software, free of charge, GM says. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed April 21, 2025.
In January, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration launched a preliminary investigation into almost 878,000 General Motors vehicles following multiple complaints of engine failures.
The probe targets specific models from the 2019-2024 production years, including Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, Chevrolet Tahoe, Chevrolet Suburban, GMC Yukon, and Cadillac Escalade trucks and SUVs equipped with the L87 V8 engine.

We have 2019 Chevy Suburban that had a faulty transmission, we paid out of pocket for it October 2024. By March 2025, the transmission started the same signs of failing, hard shifting, loss of power, shuttering transmission – it is now October 2025, the new transmission is supposed to be out of pocket but no one from Colussy Chevrolet or GM will hand this issue. They advise to just leave the vehicle, PAY TO RENT ONE FROM THEM, and when they get a chance they’ll look at it… but there are so many people ahead of us it could be “weeks – months” per their service manager! This is unsafe!

Yes I was affected personally after I spent 7k on a new transmission for my 2020 Camaro SS…. Plus rental car fees etc… after complaining several timestimes to the dealership that something was wrong with the transmission they checked and had me spend unnecessary money on tires brakes rotors etc… then only to find out later on after several trips and money being spend with Chevy dealership I took it to someone else it was the transmission all the while like I told them in the beginning. So yes in want my money back I have all my receipts and records all of them…
