MGN Several recalls have been announced this week including some trucks and SUVs from GM, Nestle cookie dough and some frozen raspberries. Here are the details on each of those recalls: GM trucks and SUVs General Motors is recalling more than 600,000 four-wheel-drive trucks and SUVs because a software error could activate the braking system, increasing the risk of a crash. The recall covers the 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, 2015-2020 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2014-2018 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2015-2020 GMC Yukon models. GM said 653,370 vehicles worldwide were potentially affected, but no accidents have been reported. Activation of the braking software is triggered by the failure of a wheel-speed sensor, leading to unintended braking on the opposite wheel. That would cause the vehicle to pull to one side, increasing the risk of a crash. That risk can be eliminated by driving in two-wheel drive mode until the recall repair is made, GM said. GM will reprogram the vehicles’ software free of charge. Wawona Frozen Food—Frozen Raspberries Wawona Frozen Foods is voluntarily recalling packages of frozen raspberries and frozen berry mixes containing raspberries sold at Aldi Grocery Stores and frozen raspberries sold at Raley’s Family of Fine Stores because they have the potential to be contaminated with Hepatitis A. The frozen raspberries and frozen berry mixes containing raspberries were packaged under the Aldi and Raley’s private labels.
