1 recall across 1 model year
The GMC C50 has 1 recall affecting the 1978 model year, where a positive battery cable routed too close to the exhaust manifold can overheat and shed its insulation, then contact nearby brake lines and wear through them, allowing brake fluid to leak out and reducing stopping ability.
When the brake lines lose fluid, braking force drops, potentially leaving the driver unable to stop the vehicle effectively. The issue applies to 1978 models equipped with hydraulic brakes, certain gasoline engines, and frame-mounted batteries.
