General Motors has recalled nearly 600,000 Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC vehicles over potential engine issues.

The recall, issued over a problem with the 6.2L V8 gas engine, impacts 597,630 total vehicles, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s recall notice. GM found that the connecting rod and/or crankshaft engine parts have “manufacturing defects” that could lead to engine damage or failure.

Engine failure can increase the risk of a crash. Signs of engine failure include strange noises like knocking or grinding, an activated check engine light, a sudden loss of power and abnormal shifting.

GM will mail notification letters to owners by June 9. The vehicles can be repaired for free at any authorized Cadillac, Chevrolet or GMC dealership.
