Is it safe to drive my LYRIQ or Blazer EV SS before the fix?

GM did not issue a do-not-drive or park-outside warning. The issue only shows up at low speed in a narrow set of conditions, and braking returns on the next press. Drive normally, take extra care in slow, sharp turns over dips, and get the update as soon as it's offered.

Will GM replace my brakes?

No. The remedy is a software update to the brake system control module. GM's filing does not call for new pads, rotors or hydraulic parts.

How much does the fix cost?

Nothing. Safety recall repairs are free, whether you get the update over the air or at a dealer.

My car already had the 24V589 brake update. Am I covered?

Not for this issue. If your car is performance AWD, you need the new 26V717 / N262570900 software too.

Are other GM EVs like the Equinox EV or Silverado EV included?

Not in this campaign. NHTSA's record lists only the LYRIQ, Blazer EV, VISTIQ and CELESTIQ. Always confirm with your own VIN.
