A recall on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 affects a total of 38,710 units in Canada.

On certain 1500 series models equipped with 4.3L and 5.3L engines, exhaust components may overheat while the vehicle is idling in cold temperatures. This could cause nearby plastic components to overheat and melt, possibly resulting in smoke and/or fire and increasing the risk of injury and/or damage.

Dealers will therefore reprogram the engine control module.
