2020 Chevrolet 5500xd Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2020 Chevrolet 5500XD has 3 recalls, the most serious involving rear wheel lug nuts and rear axle U-bolt nuts that may not have been properly tightened, either of which can loosen and cause a wheel to detach or the driveshaft to separate while driving.

The loose lug nuts on the rear outer wheels can allow a wheel to come free from the vehicle entirely. The U-bolt nuts that secure the rear axle can loosen and let the axle shift out of alignment, which can cause the driveshaft to break away, cutting power to the rear wheels and stalling the truck. There is also a seatbelt concern on vehicles equipped with a dual-mode belt locking mechanism: the front seatbelt assembly may not properly restrain an occupant in a crash, raising the risk of injury.
