Chevrolet service campaign N252528241
Chevrolet filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated May 4, 2026, about the service brakes. It names 2 model years (2025–2026). 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.
What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationCertain vehicles may have a condition in which the vehicle experiences a reduction in deceleration during a low-speed ABS braking event when the road surface transitions from smooth to rough surfaces. Dealers are to reprogram the Brake System Control Module. Owners who have accepted applicable terms and conditions will have the opportunity to accept these software changes using wireless over-the-air (OTA) technology without having to bring their vehicle to a dealership. Alternatively, owners may have their vehicle serviced at a GM dealer to receive these software updates.
