GM bulletin PIT6186D
What it saysThis Preliminary information communicates that a customer may see a Super Cruise Unavailable message with multiple codes setting and Engineering is working on a resolution. NHTSA’s full summary ↓
GM filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Dec 16, 2024, received Dec 20, 2024, about the forward collision avoidance. It names 8 model years across Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac (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.

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 8 model years this bulletin names have filed 1,146 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 75 of them name Forward Collision Avoidance — 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.
The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Suburban. The contact stated that the "Adaptive Cruise Control Temporarily Unavailable" message was displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed, and the contact was advised that the radar was faulty and needed to be replaced.
2025 Chevrolet Suburban · Forward Collision Avoidance · filed with NHTSA Jul 24, 2025
The issue is related to Super Cruise hands free driving. During a recent long trip multiple times the Super Cruise signaled for lane change and tried to move into the passing lane with a car directly beside me.
2025 Chevrolet Tahoe · Forward Collision Avoidance · filed with NHTSA May 11, 2026
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 PIT6186D 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 PIT6186D 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 PIT6186D cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 8 model years across 3 brands (Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac): 2025 Cadillac Escalade, 2025 Chevrolet Silverado, 2024 Chevrolet Silverado, 2025 Chevrolet Suburban, 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2025 GMC Sierra and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
