2 Million Vehicles Are Recalled by GM

General Motors Corp. said it was recalling more than 2 million vehicles to fix a variety of potential safety defects.

GM said the largest of the safety actions included nearly 1.5 million full-size pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles from the 2003 to 2005 model years with second-row seat belts that may be difficult to properly position across passengers’ hips.

The recall includes some of GM’s top-selling pickup trucks and SUVs, including the model year 2003 to 2005 Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Tahoe, Hummer H2, Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, GMC Yukon XL and the crew cab versions of the Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra.

Shares of Detroit-based GM rose a penny to $26.75 on the New York Stock Exchange.
