What is wrong
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2010-2017 GMC Terrain vehicles.

What can happen
The bright reflection may cause a glare for other drivers, reducing their visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
