Recalls: check by VIN

NHTSA files recalls for the GMC M/L Van under individual trim or body names rather than "M/L Van", so we can't match them automatically. Enter your 17-digit VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls for the definitive list. The owner complaints below are matched correctly.

ANTILOCK BRAKES ACTIVATE AT VERY LOW SPEEDS SUCH AS THE LAST COUPLE OF FEET BEFORE COMING TO A STOP. THIS OCCURS ON DRY PAVEMENT WITH NO SKIDDING WHATSOEVER. THIS INCREASES STOPING DISTANCES AND I FEEL TAHA IT COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
