Without the warning light, a vehicle may be driven with low brake fluid, which can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash, the NHTSA said.

GM is recalling 450,000 2023 and 2024 trucks and SUVs of varying models due to a faulty brake fluid light apparently caused by a computer issue that doesn't relay the necessary information.

General Motors is recalling more than 449,000 of its SUVs and pickup trucks because the electronic brake control module software may fail to display a warning light when a loss of brake fluid takes place.
