What happened

General Motors is recalling certain 2014 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe vehicles, as well as 2014 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL vehicles manufactured during specific periods in July 2013. These vehicles have rear brake caliper bolts that may not be fully tightened, which could cause reduced braking performance and lengthened stopping distances, potentially increasing the risk of a crash.

To address this issue, GM will notify owners and dealers will inspect the bolts on both rear brake caliper brackets at no charge. Any loose bolts will be replaced and tightened. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC at 1-800-462-8782 to arrange service. GM's recall number is 13247.
