June 26 (Reuters) - GM is recalling 62,468 vehicles in

the U.S. as an electrical short in the brake pressure switch can

increase the risk of a fire while the vehicle is driving or

parked, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

said on Thursday.

The recall covers certain 2019-2024 Chevrolet Silverado

vehicles, NHTSA said.
