2017 GMC Sierra 2500 Recalls & Complaints

The 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 has 6 recalls, the most serious being fire and stall risks on diesel models: an optional engine-block heater cord can short-circuit and start a fire, and the optional dual rear fuel tank can collapse and cut off fuel delivery, stalling the engine.

On the occupant safety side, there are three seatbelt-related recalls. The front seatbelt retractors were built with the wrong torsion bar, meaning they may not hold properly in a crash. Two separate recalls cover the front airbags and seatbelt pretensioners, which can fail to fire in a crash that requires them, leaving the driver and front passenger without full restraint protection. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the pretensioner issue, which is why it appears across more than one recall campaign.
