What's wrong?
The fuel pump module in the 2021-2022 GMC Terrain Na and Equinox is the unit inside the fuel tank that moves gasoline from the tank to the engine. It also includes the sender assembly, which helps report fuel level. When it works correctly, the pump keeps a steady fuel flow so the engine can keep running.
On affected SUVs, a supplier changed the manufacturing process for the pump during the suspect production window. That change reduced internal pump clearances, so the pump does not always send enough fuel to the engine. When fuel flow drops too low, the engine loses the steady supply it needs and can stall.
Drivers can see a check engine light, feel engine hesitation, or find that the SUV will not start. Those are the warning signs to report when calling a GMC dealer about recall 23V013.
Who's affected?
The scope spans two SUV nameplates across the 2021 and 2022 model years, all tied to the same fuel pump control module.

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?
An engine stall increases the risk of a crash because power is lost while the vehicle is moving. If the check engine light appears, the engine hesitates, or the vehicle will not start, contact a GMC dealer and limit driving until inspected. Repair will be free at any franchised GMC dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2021-2022 GMC Terrain Na or Equinox is included in this recall.
- Watch for the owner letter GM mailed on June 5, 2023 if your VIN is included.
- Contact a franchised GMC dealer and ask when the free fuel-pump-module replacement for recall number 23V013 is open for your vehicle.
- Ask the dealer to document GM recall N222372310 when you schedule or call for status.
- Pull over safely and call for service if the engine stalls before the fuel-pump-module repair is complete.
What happens at the repair
The final dealer repair is still under development. Once GMC opens it, a GMC technician will replace the fuel pump module, and parts and labor will be free under the recall. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because all covered vehicles are under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
