General Motors is recalling 3,317 model year 2020 Chevrolet Corvettes and Cadillac CT4s, CT5s and XT4s, model year 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazers, and model year 2020-2021 Buick Encore Gxs.

ConsumerConnect gathered that sensor connection contamination in the electronic brake boost system may cause an interruption of communication between the sensor and the brake boost system.

If communication with the sensor is interrupted, the electronic brake boost assist could be lost, report said.

Extra pedal force will be required to slow and stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

In regard to what to do in resolving the issue, GM will notify affected car owners, and dealers will replace the electronic brake boost module free of charge.

The current recall is expected to begin November 9, 2020.

Meanwhile, vehicle owners may contact Chevrolet Customer Service on (800) 630-2438, Cadillac Customer Service on (800) 333-4223, or Buick Customer Service on (800) 521-7300.

GM’s number for this recall is A202307260.
