General Motors recalled thousands of SUV units due to braking system problems.

Reuters reported Tuesday that the manufacturer has issued a recall for 21,469 electric SUVs in the United States.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), concerns were raised regarding the anti-lock brake system, particularly in the Cadillac Lyriq models produced between 2023 and 2024.

"The anti-lock brake may unexpectedly release pressure in the vehicle's service system," NHTSA's Chief of Recall Management Division Alex Ansley said.

Bill Grotz, a General Motors spokesman, said that less than 500 of the 21,469 recalled units were models from 2023 and dealers have started to fix the units for free, as per Detroit Free Press.

Grotz added that the automaker has identified a solution and would fix the units using wireless over-the-air technology this August.

The spokesman also said that the hiccup happens in "rare circumstances at low speeds" and assured that GM will prioritize the safety and satisfaction of its consumers.

Grotz added that the braking system issue will not hinder the production of the 2024 Lyriq at the Spring Hill Assembly plant in Tennessee.

In May, the NHTSA filed a safety recall report detailing GM's investigation of the issue, after two minor accidents caused by an alleged braking loss and software issue were reported. The filings related to the incidents were made in February and March.

The investigation concluded that these rare circumstances included a false warning from the anti-lock braking system on a dry road surface and a speed of 25 mph or below.

"The specific wheel movements can cause the ABS to keep commanding the brake pressure release in its service system," the report said. "General Motors is not aware of any injuries or casualties caused by this defect."

GM will mail affected owners about the issue in September. Lyriq owners can also reach out to Cadillac's customer service.

Apart from General Motors, BMW recently recalled numerous units after citing faulty starter engine issues. It was reported that 105,588 units might contain the issue. Dealers are in the process of implementing software updates on the vehicles free of charge.
