The defect
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2023 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon vehicles. The front camera module (FCM) system may falsely detect an obstacle, causing the automatic emergency braking (AEB) to engage unexpectedly.
What it can cause
Unexpected automatic emergency braking can cause the vehicle to abruptly stop or slow down, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will update the front camera module (FCM) software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 5, 2024. Owners may contact GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is A232424660.
NHTSA's note
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 55,755 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 89% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Chevrolet vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 63 times before this, most recently in November 2023 as 23V744000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for all 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 189 complaints with NHTSA, 38 of them before this campaign was filed. 58 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 24V703000 (seat belts), 24V237000 (wheels).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by General Motors, LLC with NHTSA on February 22, 2024 as campaign 24V133000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
