GM and Cruise did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
Cruise is targeting a limited return to city streets with human drivers later this year, likely in Houston or Dallas, Reuters reported in February.
The company suspended its US operations last October after an incident in San Francisco where one of its robotaxis dragged a pedestrian struck by another car.
Before that, Cruise had driverless operations in Phoenix, Houston, Austin, Dallas and Miami.
