(Reuters) - General Motors Co (N:GM) is recalling about 64,000 Chevrolet Volt hybrid electric cars for a software update to prevent carbon monoxide buildup when a driver forgets to shut off the vehicle, Automotive News reported on Thursday, citing a statement from the company.
GM is aware of two injuries related to the issue, Automotive News said.
The company is recalling cars from the 2011-2013 model years for a software update to limit how long the car can be left idling, the website said. (http://bit.ly/1GwWujT)
