Description

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020 Chevrolet Equinox vehicles. The rear brake calipers may have been produced with an incorrect lubricant, potentially causing the rubber seals to swell and the brakes to drag. Brake drag may result in overheating of the brake pads, affecting the braking ability and increasing the risk of a crash.
