Defects and consequences: GM is recalling some 2015-2020 Chevrolet suburban, Tahoe and Yukon, as well as 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles, equipped with 5.3-litre engine and 3.08 transmission ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive.

Inadvertent activation of the driveline protection system can cause the wheels opposite the faulty sensor to brake unexpectedly, which can cause the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.
