March 8, 2022 · General Motors, LLC · Campaign 22V-137

What is wrong: General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2010-2017 GMC Terrain vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Risk: The bright reflection may cause a glare for other drivers, reducing their visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.
