General Motors is recalling 51,640 2014 vehicles over a software issue that could cause the fuel gauge to read inaccurately, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The recall involves GM's 2014 Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave SUVs.
Affected SUVs were manufactured from March 26, 2013 through August 15, 2013, according to GM.
"In the affected vehicles, the engine control module (ECM) software may cause the fuel gauge to read inaccurately," said NHTSA in its summary. "An inaccurate fuel gauge may result in the vehicle unexpectedly running out of fuel and stalling, increasing the risk of a crash."
GM said to federal safety regulators that the inaccurate readings may be at both the high and low end of the fuel range.
Readings could be by as much as one quarter of a tank, according to the automaker.
No crashes or injuries have been linked to the recall as of year, said GM spokesman Alan Adler, according to Edmunds.
A formal date for the recall has not yet been posted by the NHTSA.
Adler said to Edmunds that owners can "get this serviced free under the new vehicle warranty now, before the recall letters are mailed."
Owners are encouraged to contact their local dealers as soon as possible.
GM dealers are being instructed to reprogram the ECM to correct the fuel gauge reading.
All repairs will be made free of charge, according to GM.
Owners with more questions can reach Buick at 1-800-521-7300, Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 and GMC at 1-800-462-8782.
