GM filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Mar 31, 2025, received Apr 29, 2025, about the electrical system. It names 5 model years across Chevrolet, GMC and Buick (2024–2025). 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.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is GM 25-NA-082 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 25-NA-082 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 25-NA-082 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 5 model years across 3 brands (Chevrolet, GMC and Buick): 2025 Buick Enclave, 2024 Buick Enclave, 2025 Chevrolet Traverse, 2024 Chevrolet Traverse, 2025 GMC Acadia. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
