The short answer

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

A rearview image that does not display correctly reduces the driver’s view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

General Motors, LLC is recalling certain 2024-2025 Buick Envista, 2024-2026 Buick Encore GX, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and 2025 Chevrolet Trax vehicles.

The rearview camera screen may display a distorted or blank image.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
