What happened

General Motors is recalling certain 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks because the owner's manual may be missing instructions for using the tether anchorage and child restraint anchorage systems. Without these instructions, a child seat may be installed incorrectly and not properly secured, which increases the risk of injury in a crash.

If you own one of these vehicles, GM will notify you about the recall. Dealers will provide a corrected insert for your owner's manual at no charge. To inquire about your vehicle or to report that you have not yet received notification, contact GM customer service at 1-800-222-1020 for Chevrolet vehicles or 1-800-462-8782 for GMC vehicles. Reference recall number 17307.
