Details

What's wrong: The door-handle cable inside the rear doors may be too long, allowing contact with the window when it is opened, possibly damaging the cable. A damaged cable may cause the rear door to open unintentionally when the rear window is opened. Additionally, it may cause the rear inside door handle to not work.

Why it matters: If the rear door opens while driving, or the door handle fails to open the rear door, there is an increased risk of injury to the rear passengers.

The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear inside door-handle cables, free of charge. The recall began April 17, 2020.
