2 recalls across 1 model year
The Chevrolet G4500 has 2 recalls, both affecting 2018 model year ambulance and emergency vehicle builds, where Whelen brake lights can illuminate without the brake pedal being pressed, potentially confusing following drivers and raising the risk of a crash.
Both recalls cover the same underlying brake light wiring issue on 2018 vehicles and apply to units built by different ambulance upfitters on the G4500 chassis. The brake lights activating on their own can cause drivers behind the vehicle to react to a stop that isn't happening, creating a hazard in traffic.
