(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.
