General Motors is recalling 67,380 vehicles due to a software glitch that can cause a temporary loss of braking. The recall affects certain models of the Chevrolet Blazer EV and Cadillac Lyriq, Vistiq, and Celestiq. The issue occurs under specific conditions, such as light braking at low speeds during a sharp turn when the vehicle hits a bump. GM is aware of 20 minor incidents, two of which resulted in minor injuries. The software update to fix the issue can be done via an over-the-air update or at a dealership, free of charge. Owners will be notified starting December 14.
The recall is a follow-up to a similar issue in 2024, where 21,469 all-wheel-drive Lyriqs were recalled. GM found that vehicles built after that recall and those that received the software update from the previous recall are still susceptible to the conditions described in the new recall and need the latest software update. The updated software corrects the slip calculation in the brake system control module that causes the temporary loss of braking.
