GM calls 740k vehicles for daytime running lights which do not turn off.
General Motors have an issue affecting daytime running lamps on at least one vehicle from each of its four brands. Fortunately, it's a minor issue that, in theory, should be an easy fix.
In its recall notice on the issue, GM doesn't mention any potential damage that could occur as a direct result of the lights staying on. However, glare from both headlights and daytime lamps being on at the same time could reduce visibility, increasing the chance of a collision. Having both sets of lights on is also a violation of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108. GM doesn't mention any accidents or injuries related to the problem.
All total, 740,108 vehicles are included in the recall. That includes such popular vehicles as the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Yukon, and Cadillac Escalade. The Buick Envision, Cadillac CT4, and CT5 models are also included.
