General Motors Co. is calling back about 3,200 fullsize vans equipped to burn natural gas so dealers can replace a leaky high-pressure gas regulator.
The recall covers 2010-2014 Chevrolet Express and 2011-2014 GMC Savana rear-drive vans in the U.S.
GM attributes some leaks to problems associated with a recall last year to replace a solenoid in the regulator. But it says other leaks appear to be caused by defects in the manufacture and assembly of the regulator itself.
