-- (Updates to add General Motors' statement throughout and remove market chatter tag)
General Motors (GM) is voluntarily recalling certain containers of ACDelco GMW DOT 3 brake and clutch fluid that may not adhere to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, the company said in a Thursday statement to.
"GM dealers and ACDelco's direct purchasers will remove any remaining stock from the suspect lot number," the automaker said. "Customer satisfaction is a top priority for the GM team, and we're resolving this matter as quickly as possible."
The statement came in response to a request for comment on a report by Reuters, citing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, that the company recalled 40,440 of its vehicles in the US due to the presence of sediment in the brake fluid.
However, GM toldthat the recall wasn't related to vehicles and that about 40,400 bottles are impacted.
