GM is recalling 473,000 SUV's in the US and Canada. The recall covers certain 2015 and 2016 Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD and Chevrolet Tahoe police vehicles whose brake pedals can come loose and fail to work properly. More than 46,800 of the recalled vehicles are in Canada.

GM reports that a nut on the brake pedal pivot mechanism can come loose, causing the pedal to loosen and possibly become inoperative. Dealers will inspect the pivot bolts. If they weren't fixed at the factory, dealers will put adhesive on the nut and retighten it. Canadian safety regulators say the problem can cause the brake lights to stay on longer than expected.
