NHTSA recall 22V-463 (22V463000)

What is being recalled

General Motors (GM) has decided that certain 2022 model year Chevrolet Silverado, and GMC Sierra vehicles equipped with an accessory sport bar. The accessory sport bar contains a high-mounted brake light that may not function. In addition, it may block the vehicle's existing high-mounted brake light. As such, these vehicles may fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."

Why it is dangerous

An inoperative high-mounted brake light can reduce visibility to other drivers and increase the risk of a crash.
