General Motors is recalling certain 2024-2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV vehicles because a damaged or corroded rear parking brake harness can activate the parking brake while driving, or disable it while parked.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 4 covers structural vehicle defects: the fault can apply the parking brake while the vehicle is moving or leave it unable to hold the vehicle when parked, both failures of a braking system.

Plain-English summary

General Motors, LLC is recalling certain 2024-2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV vehicles. About 40,233 units are potentially affected.

The rear parking brake wiring harness may become damaged or corroded, resulting in unintended activation of the parking brake or loss of the parking brake function.

NHTSA states that unintended activation of the parking brake while driving increases the risk of a crash, and that loss of the parking brake function while parked can result in a rollaway.
