NHTSA recall 15V415000
Structure · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall.
Why it matters: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The recall began on November 15, 2016.
