DEFECT SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020 Chevrolet Corvette and Cadillac CT4, CT5 and XT4, 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer, and 2020-2021 Buick Encore GX vehicles. Sensor connection contamination in the electronic brake boost system may cause an interruption of communication between the sensor and the brake boost system.
CONSEQUENCE SUMMARY: If communication with the sensor is interrupted, the electronic brake boost assist could be lost. Extra pedal force will be required to slow and stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
CORRECTIVE SUMMARY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the electronic brake boost module, free of charge. The recall began December 9, 2020.
