Buick service campaign N242484740
Buick filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Jan 14, 2025, about the unknown or other. It names 3 model years (2022–2023). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
