GMC Canyon Recall 24V491: Fuel Leak in Crash Can Raise Fire Risk

NHTSA campaign 24V491, reported June 28, 2024, 8,622 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain vehicles may have a fuel pump lock ring that was not fully locked during assembly, so it may not hold the fuel pump securely to the fuel tank. If the vehicle is involved in a crash, this can cause a fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

Dealers will inspect the fuel tank lock ring and fully lock it if needed. The repair is free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 13, 2024. You can also contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or the GMC Customer Call Center at (888) 988-7267, and reference GM recall number N242451330.

If you own a 2024 Chevrolet Colorado or GMC Canyon, check your VIN for open recalls and schedule the free inspection with an authorized dealer.
