- Published by: NHTSA \(United States\)

- Manufacturer's number: N232403240
- Manufacturer: General Motors, LLC
- Reported: 2023\-05\-11
- Owners notified: 2023\-06\-02

## What is wrong

General Motors, LLC \(GM\) is recalling certain 2020\-2023 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles.  The four rear\-seat lower child seat LATCH anchorage bars may have excessive powder coating, which could prevent a child seat from being installed with the anchorage bars.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."


## What can happen

The inability to install a child seat with the LATCH anchorage bars could result in an unsecured child seat, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.


## The remedy

Owners are advised to install child seats using the vehicle's rear seat belts until the remedy is complete.  Dealers will inspect the latch anchorage bars, and remove and replace the finish, as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed June 2, 2023.  Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1\-800\-222\-1020 or GMC customer service at 1\-800\-462\-8782.  GM's number for this recall is N232403240.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
