Momentary Wheel Lock-Up

Released: 2025-03-06

GM Program #

N242480630

Status

Incomplete. Remedy not available

NHTSA

AWAITING#

Date Issued:

2025-03-06

Description

General Motors has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety may exist in certain: 2019 – 2020 model year Cadillac CT6, 2020 – 2021 model year Cadillac CT4 and CT5, and 2020 – 2022 model year Chevrolet Camaro vehicles equipped with a 10-speed transmission. A transmission control valve in some of these vehicles may be susceptible to excess wear over time, resulting in a gradual loss of pressure within the valve that can cause harsh shifting. In rare cases, the wheels may experience a momentary lock up.

Safety Risk Description

If the wheels lock-up momentarily while driving, there is increased risk of a crash.

Repair Description

Dealers will install new transmission control module software that will monitor valve performance and detect excess wear approximately 10,000 miles before a wheel lock up condition could occur. Once detected, the transmission will be limited to fifth gear, preventing the possibility of a wheel lock up condition, which occurs in a downshift from eighth gear. A service engine light and reduced propulsion message will also display in the instrument panel.
