GMC bulletin N232427100-01

What it saysGeneral Motors has decided to conduct a Voluntary Emission Recall on certain vehicles with a 6.6L diesel engine. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

GMC filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Apr 4, 2024, about the structure. It names 2 model years (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.

What the dealer does Dealers are to inspect the hood vent and replace if the correct part was not installed.

Picked out of NHTSA’s summary below, word for word. The document itself is the record, and the dealer checks the VIN.

Engine 6.6L “Emission Recall - General Motors has decided to conduct a Voluntary Emission Recall on certain vehicles with a 6.6L diesel engine.”

What it applies to, as NHTSA’s summary states it — build dates and equipment as the manufacturer filed them. The dealer checks the VIN and the build date on the door jamb; a vehicle outside the window is not covered by this bulletin.

Emission Recall - General Motors has decided to conduct a Voluntary Emission Recall on certain vehicles with a 6.6L diesel engine. These vehicles may have been built with an incorrect hood vent that does not allow sufficient airflow. Dealers are to inspect the hood vent and replace if the correct part was not installed.

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.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is GMC N232427100-01 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 N232427100-01 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 N232427100-01 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 2 model years: 2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD, 2024 GMC Sierra 3500HD. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
