General Motors is recalling 2,781 model year 2020 Buick Enclaves, Cadillac XT5s, Cadillac XT6s, Chevrolet Traverses, and GMC Acadias.

According to the company, the fuel pump’s jet nozzle may have a plastic burr remaining from the manufacturing process, possibly causing a blocked nozzle and an insufficient fuel supply to the engine.

An insufficient fuel supply can result in an engine stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash.

As regards what to do in correcting the factory error, GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump module.

The recall is expected to begin November 30, 2020.

Meanwhile, affected vehicle owners may contact GMC Customer Service at (888) 988-7267, Buick Customer Service on (800) 955-9007, Chevrolet Customer Service on (800) 222-1020, or Cadillac Customer Service on (800) 458-8006.
