The car company General Motors is recalling more than four million vehicles worldwide due to a software defect linked to at least one death.

The company said that the fault is rare, but can prevent airbags from deploying during a crash. It said the seat belts may also not function.

Trucks, cars and SUVs from the 2014-17 models are to be recalled.

The company said it will contact customers and update their software for free.

General Motors, which is based in Detroit, said the recall would not have a material impact on its financial results.
