1978 GMC K Series

The 1978 GMC K Series has two recalls, the more serious being a spare tire carrier bolt nut that can break and drop the spare tire and wheel assembly onto the road while driving, where it can roll or bounce into other vehicles or pedestrians.

The second recall affects K30 pickup trucks specifically: the certification label incorrectly lists a narrower rear wheel size than the one the vehicle requires. If the narrower wheel listed is installed, it lacks the strength to handle the load the tires place on it and can cause a loss of vehicle control.
