General Motors is recalling nearly 8 lakh Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks worldwide that could lose power steering, according to documents made public on Friday.

The largest US automaker said the 2014 model year trucks could suffer a temporary loss of electric power steering, especially during low-speed turning maneuvers, according to documents disclosed on Friday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The recall includes about 6,90,000 vehicles in the United States, 80,000 in Canada and around 25,000 in other markets. GM dealers will reflash the vehicle’s software to address the defect. GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson did not have any details on whether crashes or injuries are connected to the recall.
