- Summary
- The windshields were installed with incorrect windshield opening pinch-weld-flange primer. This primer will not properly etch the painted surface of the flange, allowing the windshield to separate from the vehicle during a collision. This does not comply with the requirements of FMVSS no. 212, "windshield mounting."
- Consequence
- Consequence of non-compliance: the separation of the windshield from the vehicle during collision increases the risk of injury for all persons involved.
- Remedy
- Dealers will remove the windshield and reinstall it using the correct primer.
- Notes
- System: visual systems; glass; windshield.vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks.note: if the vehicle is presented to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and the remedy is not provided free of charge within a reasonable time or the remedy does not correct the noncompliance, please contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020; or GMC at 1-810-456-4547.

Has your Chevrolet been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Chevrolet dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
