General Motors has decided that certain 2016 Chevrolet and GMC vehicles have a radio that may not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard for theft protection, roll away prevention and\/or occupant crash protection. The radio software feature that checks for an open driver\u2019s door and requests a chime may end before the radio completes its \u201cstart-up\u201d routine. Both the key reminder chime and seat belt reminder chime will not play if that occurs. An unbelted driver is at a greater risk of injury during an accident and a key left in the ignition increases the chance of theft. <\/p>\n
The vehicles affected by this problem include:<\/p>\n
Dealers will correct the problem by updating the radio software. Owners wanting more information about the problem are asked to contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM’s number for this recall is 15808 and the NHTSA campaign number is 16V-084. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
