Owners may contact GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782 and Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is N262556920.

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 952 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 58% 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, 2026, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2026, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Chevrolet vehicles have been recalled over the wheels 10 times before this, most recently in May 2026 as 26V304000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 5 complaints with NHTSA, 4 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 26V494000 (electrical system), 26V114000 (equipment), 25V594000 (electronic stability control (esc)).
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 July 30, 2026 as campaign 26V496000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
