370,000 Full-Sized Trucks Recalled by GM for Risk of Fire

370,000 full-size trucks are being recalled by GM for fire risk. After eight reported fires  GM is telling owners not to leave trucks unattended with the engine on (idling). January 2014 the automaker announced the recall of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GM Sierra for a software reprogramming to prevent the overheating of exhaust components that could potentially lead to fires in the engine compartment. This issue is often signaled by a "engine power reduced" message in the driver information center and a yellow continuous "check engine light". There have been eight confirmed fires as result of this software issue.
