800,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra models recalled worldwide

800,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra models recalled worldwide: General Motors is in trouble again. The company is recalling almost 800,000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks worldwide, because these vehicles could lose steering. The largest U.S. automaker said the 2014 model year trucks could suffer a temporary loss of electric power steering, especially during low-speed turning maneuvers, according to documents disclosed Friday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.



This car recall includes about 690,000 vehicles in the U.S., 80,000 in Canada and around 25,000 in other markets. GM dealers will reflash the vehicle's software to address the defect. GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson did not have any details on whether crashes or injuries are connected to the recall.
