General Motors has announced it was recalling 54,686 trucks and SUVs for an issue with the vehicles' steering column, LA Times has reported. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the vehicles may have been built with a "fractured park lock cable or a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." The defect could allow the vehicle to roll away unexpectedly because it can be shifted out of park after the key has been removed from the ignition or without the driver pushing on the brake pedal. The recall includes a slew of models, including the Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban; the Cadillac Escalade, Escalade EXT, and Escalade ESV; and the GMC Sierra, Yukon, Yukon XL, and Savana. All vehicles are 2013 models and were manufactured between November 7 and December 18, 2012.
