Plain-English summary

General Motors is recalling certain 2022 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon vehicles equipped with manual passenger seats. The front passenger seat may have a hook attachment that was not properly welded, allowing it to separate from the inboard track of the seat frame.

An improperly welded seat frame may not properly restrain the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

If you own an affected vehicle, contact an authorized dealer or General Motors customer service: Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC at 1-800-462-8782.
