GM recalling 473,000 SUV's in US and Canada for brake pedal issues

GM is recalling 473,000 SUV's in the US and Canada. The recall covers certain 2015 and 2016 Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD and Chevrolet Tahoe police vehicles whose brake pedals can come loose and fail to work properly. More than 46,800 of the recalled vehicles are in Canada.

GM reports that a nut on the brake pedal pivot mechanism can come loose, causing the pedal to loosen and possibly become inoperative. Dealers will inspect the pivot bolts. If they weren't fixed at the factory, dealers will put adhesive on the nut and retighten it. Canadian safety regulators say the problem can cause the brake lights to stay on longer than expected.

3,500 Subaru vehicles have been recalled in Canada for loss of steering problems. The recall affects 2016 Subaru Legacy and Outback models whose steering columns may not engage correctly.

"On certain vehicles, steering column components may not have been manufactured to specification and therefore may not engage correctly, which could result in a loss of steering control and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property," Transport Canada said in a recall notice on its website.

Transport Canada said dealers will inspect, and if necessary, replace the steering column.
