Issue: A problem with the engine-block heater cable or the terminals that connect the heater cable to the block heater could cause a short circuit.

Note: This problem only affects trucks equipped with a Duramax diesel 6.6 litre engine and the optional engine-block heater cable.

Safety Risk: A short circuit could cause damage to engine components and create the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions: Stop use of your engine-block heater immediately.

The company will notify owners by mail and advise them what to do.

When a remedy is available, owners will be requested to bring their truck to a dealership for repair.

Do not use your engine-block heater until the repairs are performed.
