What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

General Motors, LLC is recalling certain Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks, as well as GMC Sierra 1500, 2500, and 3500 models from model years 2020–2022 that were subject to an earlier repair under recall 24V797. The previous repair was performed incorrectly and left the transmission control valve susceptible to failure.

If the transmission control valve fails, it may cause the rear wheels to lock up during driving. Rear wheel lock-up removes traction and control from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Approximately 1055 vehicles are affected by this recall. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 6, 2026.
