Summary:
General Motors LLC "GM" is recalling certain 2016-2017 Chevrolet Suburban HD vehicles. These vehicles were assembled with a convex right-hand outside mirror, instead of with a non-convex "flat" right-hand outside mirror. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 111, "Rearview Mirrors." |
||
|
Consequence:
If equipped with the incorrect right-side rear-view mirror, the driver may misjudge the distance of other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash. |
||
|
Remedy:
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the convex mirror with a non-convex mirror and provide a new page for the owner's manual with the customer notification letter, free of charge. The recall began February 7, 2017. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 17017. |
