GENERAL MOTORS issued a recall on multiple vehicle models

On certain trucks equipped with the optional Caterpillar Diesel Engine (LG5), the battery cable could come in contact with the exhaust pipe. The conduit and the nylon cable coating could degrade to the point where the copper wire strands of the cable are exposed. If the cable strands contacted the exhaust pipe, the short circuit could cause the battery cable coatings to ignite and possibly lead to an engine compartment fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect the battery cable for proper routing and reroute the cable if necessary.
