Issue
Issue:
This recall is a new notification for owners that purchased a soft or hard tri-fold tonneau cover from a General Motors dealer.
On certain trucks, the bed-cover could come loose while driving and detach from the truck. This problem affects soft and hard tri-fold tonneau covers that were sold as an accessory by General Motors dealers.
Note: This recall is related to Transport Canada recalls 2019-494 and 2020-165. If your truck was previously repaired under either of those recalls, it does not require further repair under the new recall.
Safety Risk:
A tonneau cover that separates from a moving vehicle could create a hazard for other drivers and nearby people.
Corrective Actions:
General Motors will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to perform the recall repairs, including adding a tether to prevent the tonneau cover from detaching.
Note: Until the recall repairs are completed, you can prevent the chance of the tonneau cover detaching by removing it from your truck and storing it.
