GM bulletin PIT6073C
What it saysThis Preliminary information communicates an issue with the front heated seat on indicators being inoperative, but the heated seats work. NHTSA’s full summary ↓
GM filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Sep 6, 2024, about the seats. It names 6 model years across Chevrolet and GMC (2023). 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 PIT6073C 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 PIT6073C 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.
Which vehicles does PIT6073C cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 6 model years across 2 brands (Chevrolet and GMC): 2023 Chevrolet Silverado, 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD, 2023 GMC Sierra, 2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD, 2023 GMC Sierra 3500HD. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
