2018–2019 Chevrolet K2XX Silverado 2500HD: roof-rail airbag inflators may rupture

In February 2025, recall campaigns N242474500 and N252513060 were issued for 2018–2019 Chevrolet K2XX Silverado 2500HD vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, the left- and right-side roof-rail airbag inflator end caps may separate or the inflator sidewalls could fracture. This could cause the airbag inflator housings could to rupture. If this occurred, compressed gas and metal fragments may be propelled through the airbag cushion towards vehicle occupants – this posed a risk of serious injury. To fix, an authorised dealer was to replace the airbag. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-006257.
