NHTSA campaign 25V768, reported November 6, 2025, 891 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some 2019-2020 Chevrolet medium-duty trucks were built with a brake jumper wire harness that lacks protective tape. Over time, the unprotected wires can become damaged. This can cause the power brake assist to fail, which makes the vehicle harder to stop and raises the risk of a crash.

This recall covers vehicles that were previously repaired under NHTSA Recall 25V390. Those vehicles will need the new remedy as well. Owner notification letters are planned to be mailed December 22, 2025. GM's recall number is N252531990, and you can call GM customer assistance at 1-866-467-9700.

An authorized dealer will remove the wire harness, apply protective tape, and reinstall it at no cost to you. Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls on NHTSA.gov, where VINs for this recall became searchable beginning November 6, 2025.
