The short version

General Motors LLC reported a problem with the electronic stability control (esc). Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

In these vehicles, the electronic stability control (ESC) system software may inhibit certain ESC diagnostics, preventing the system from alerting the driver that the ESC system is partially or fully disabled. As such, these vehicles fail to conform with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 126, "Electronic Stability Control Systems."

WHY IT MATTERS

If the driver is not alerted to an ESC malfunction they may continue driving with a disabled ESC system which may result in loss of directional control, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

GM will notify owners, and dealers will recalibrate the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM), free of charge.
