The lock ring in your Chevy Colorado or GMC Canyon is a small part that keeps the fuel pump securely attached to the fuel tank. In some cases, it might not have been locked properly during assembly.
Risk if Unfixed
If there's a crash, the fuel pump could leak fuel, and if that fuel meets an ignition source, it could catch fire and cause serious damage.
Free Fix
Your dealer will check the fuel tank lock ring and make sure it's securely locked, at no cost to you. This repair is completely free, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.

The passenger airbag in your GMC Canyon has a computer chip that helps it deploy safely in a crash. But in some 2024-2026 AT4X AEV models, this chip might malfunction and cause the airbag to deploy more forcefully than intended.
Risk if Unfixed
If the airbag deploys incorrectly, you're at a higher risk of injury in a crash. This is because an overly aggressive airbag deployment can cause serious harm, especially to your face and chest.
Free Fix
Your GMC dealer will update the airbag computer chip with the correct software, at no cost to you. This is a free repair that you should schedule as soon as you receive the recall notice.
