- General Motors is recalling over 270,000 Chevrolet Malibu cars from 2023-2025 models in the United States.
- The recall is due to a defective rearview camera system that can display a distorted or entirely blank image.
- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) warns that this defect significantly increases the risk of a collision by impairing a motorist's rear visibility.
- The issue is attributed to a flaw in the camera housing's bonding process, which allows moisture to penetrate the unit.
- Owners of affected vehicles will receive free rearview camera replacements at authorized dealerships, with notification letters scheduled to be dispatched starting May 18.
