General Motors is recalling 2021 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana vans with 6.6-L gasoline engines because short circuits could cause them to burst into flames.
General Motors learned about the problem in December 2020, when it found issues with a 2021 Chevy Express van’s dead battery. The automaker issued a technical service bulletin a few weeks later, which told dealers to trim anti-rotation tabs on the cables for affected vehicles.
When the van batteries drain, drivers may see low-voltage warnings on the dashboard.
The recall is expected to begin May 3, 2021. Dealerships will take off portions of the anti-rotation tabs on the positive battery cable terminals and, if needed, replace the battery cables. In the meantime, owners of affected vehicles are instructed to park outside.
