			*'''RECALL ALERT:''' On December 23, 2010, GM issued a recall affecting approximately 1,260 Cadillac Escalades, [[Chevrolet Avalanche]] and [[Chevrolet Silverado\|Silverado 1500s]], and [[GMC Sierra]] 1500s from MY 2011 due to a faulty rear-axle cross pin, which could fracture and become displaced within the axle. GM said that if the pin shifts out of position, it could create an interference condition and cause the rear axle to lock, in which case, the driver may not be able to maintain directional control of the vehicle and a crash could occur without prior warning.[http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2010/12/gm-issues-separate-recalls-on-cadillac.html]
