What's wrong?

The fuel tank assembly on the 2022 Acadia, XT5, and XT6 all-wheel drive vehicles stores gasoline and routes it to the fuel pump. The rollover valve is part of that tank system. In a rollover, it is supposed to seal the tank opening so liquid fuel stays inside the tank.

On these vehicles, a plant procedure used to check a fuel pump connection inside the tank dislodged part of the rollover valve assembly. With the valve out of position, the tank does not seal as designed after a rollover. If the vehicle rests in certain rolled positions for an extended time, fuel can leak from the tank.

There is no warning sign before failure. The issue is inside the fuel tank, so an owner is not expected to hear, feel, or smell a problem during normal driving.

Who's affected?

Covers the Acadia, XT5, and XT6 from the same model year, all tied to the fuel tank assembly.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.

What's the safety risk?

The rollover valve is meant to seal the fuel tank in a rollover crash. If the valve is dislodged or missing, fuel can leak during that crash and increase fire risk. Confirm whether your VIN is included, then ask a GMC dealer when inspection and replacement are available. Repair will be free at any franchised GMC dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Acadia, XT5, or XT6 AWD vehicle is included in this recall.
  2. Review the owner letter mailed July 27, 2022, and wait for GMC repair instructions if your dealer says the remedy is not open for your VIN.
  3. Contact a franchised GMC dealer to ask about the free fuel-tank inspection for the rollover valve seal issue.
  4. Reference recall number 22V446 when you call, and ask whether the dealer will replace the fuel tank shell if the rollover valve is dislodged or missing.
  5. Avoid carrying extra fuel or driving after a fuel smell until the dealer inspects the fuel tank.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, once the final repair is available, a GMC technician will inspect the fuel tank and replace the fuel tank shell if the rollover valve is dislodged or missing. The final dealer repair will be free once it opens, with parts and labor covered by the recall. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because the covered vehicles are under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
