GM bulletin 22-NA-193
What it saysThis informational bulletin explains to the tech on where to look for a possible concern with the rockers causing the MIL to illuminate. NHTSA’s full summary ↓
GM filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Jun 4, 2024, received Oct 13, 2022, about the engine — 3 documents under this number. It names 76 model years across Chevrolet, GMC, Buick and Cadillac (2016–2024). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 76 model years this bulletin names have filed 5,084 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 989 of them name Engine, Fuel/Propulsion System — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On the 2017 GMC Acadia, the 28 owners who gave an odometer reading for Engine reported it at a median of 41,000 miles. That figure is one model year’s, not the whole range this bulletin covers — medians from different model years are not averaged.
Fuel pump control module has failed twice. First time vehicle was stranded in middle of 6 lane highway. Second time was not as serious location. This part fails without any notice and vehicle can not be put in netural to be pushed or towed without a lot of difficulty. Service manager told me they change up to 15 of these modules a month.
2021 Cadillac XT5 · Fuel/Propulsion System · filed with NHTSA Jan 16, 2025 · ODI 11636362
Transmission slipped almost from start. Took three appointments and two years - If my shop foreman knew the third time, why did he not call and tell me we now know your problem. I finally got fed up and brought it in one more time. Starter from day ONE maybe 50% of time made loud bang when Bendix retracted. Shop refused to take it off!!!

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is GM 22-NA-193 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the 22-NA-193 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every GM warranty extension on file lists the ones GM has filed.
Which vehicles does 22-NA-193 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 76 model years across 4 brands (Chevrolet, GMC, Buick and Cadillac): 2019 Buick LaCrosse, 2018 Buick LaCrosse, 2017 Buick LaCrosse, 2020 Buick Regal, 2019 Buick Regal, 2018 Buick Regal and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
