ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
we were informed by dealer that there is a recall reguarding some software that needs to be updated to reduce the chance of battery drainage. The catch is they are trying to sell us a part for $567.00 to be installed so they can update the software to fix the problem. (Terry Thompson Chevy)

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
My GM 6.2L L87 Engine failed at 65,000 miles. Left me stranded at an intersection blocking traffic. Traffic safety and state police had to come direct traffic while I was waiting for a tow. Two seperate dealers quoted me over $15,000 to replace the engine with 1/2 the cost covered by GM. This was too expensive for me, so I ended up trading the vehicle in and taking the negative equity hit on a new vehicle loan. I seen there was an investigation opening on GM 6.2L L87 engine failures and I wanted to share my experience. This also happened to more people I know, including my own father with his 2022 Cadillac Escalade

ENGINE
I started to hear a light tick/knocking sound during my daily 68 mile commute to work, 3/1/2024. When I would accelerate, the ticking would get louder. I noticed a bit of shaking at the same time of acceleration. I took it into the dealership on 3/2/2024 where they discovered metal shavings in my oil filter. They told me I needed an entire new engine at 51,000 miles. They replaced the engine under my existing power train warranty (which was valid until vehicle got to 60,000miles). I got my truck back on 4/19/2024, and was told I would NOT be given any additional warranty or guarantee for the engine and labor associated with the replacement. I asked if there was any additional warranty that would be given, and they said no. I have a high mile commute, and in this instance, my Power Train warranty was up just a few months after the replacement. My service advisor said if I had paid out of pocket, they would offer a 100,000 mile warranty. But since it was a warranty replacement, that I would only have the balance of whatever remained on my powertrain warranty. My concern is that this may happen again. I want to report my issue to be sure that every replacement is fully investigated and GM is held accountable. This is the first new vehicle I've purchased, the 5th vehicle I have owned in my lifetime and I have never needed a new engine. This is a fully loaded top of the line truck. It has every added feature.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
On 12.27.24, the vehicle lost motive power while traveling through a busy and dangerous intersection and coasted to a stop. It was towed to a GM Dealership where it was determined that the engine had seized as it wouldn't crank. The serpentine belt was also noted to be atypically damaged as if it wasn't riding evenly / correctly on the pulleys. The vehicle may be available for inspection but as of this date, repairs have been authorized... so availability may change. The dealer will likely retain the failed engine. The sudden loss of motive power is always potentially dangerous. In my situation, I could have been unable to move out of a busy intersection and been subject to cross-traffic collision. The problem has been confirmed by the dealer but has not been further inspected by anyone other than the dealer. No warning indicators occurred that led me to believe their was an impending issue with the powertrain / engine.

ENGINE
noticed my engine sounded different, its a 2022 and i owned it for 1.5 years, i was taking it to the dealer for a oil change anyways, when i was there i asked them to through ears on it, they called me a hour later trying to explain it was due to the cold air (15-20 degrees) and the 6.2l uses 93 gas. i asked them why it didnt sound like that last winter and then the senior take wanted to keep it for a few days to go over it more, 5 days later i stop in there because im not getting a answer to be told i need a new motor because my bearing are shot at only 16k miles. the chevy dealer also gave me the option to trade it in to try to "help" but then wanted to offer me 10K less then what i paid for it. i told them to just do the repair, however im told the wait in best case scenario is 6 months but can take as long as 12 months..... im pretty disgruntled about this entire situation. my trucks a 2022 silverado LT trail boss,and they supplied not even a equal truck. i was given a 2024 silverado custom which has alot less features. meanwhile im stuck paying my auto loan for my truck that i cant drive, so its sitting in the back of a chevy dealers parking lot losing value.

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I was driving down the highway at 60 MPH and a display warning came on the display monitor. It said shift into neutral and restart engine. Then the engine died and I had to try and get off the highway. There was a complete lose of power so getting off the highway was difficult without any power including steering. The engine would not restart and when to tow truck came about 2 hours later it still would not start or shift into neutral to be loaded. Eventually the tow driver got it to shift into neutral so he could loaded the truck. My safety was at risk because it was difficult to get off the road and had there been more traffic it could of resulted in a collision. I was in a dead area for phone service and I had to sit there for about 2 hours waiting for someone to stop and help me get to an area with cell service. The pickup was dropped off at the nearest GM dealership and they looked at it and the engine had a catastrophic failure. It requires a new engine, but since it is under warranty it may take up to 1 years for a replacement.

ENGINE
August 24, 2024 I was driving my 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 6.2 L V8 engine with 47,258 miles. I was traveling at approximate 65 mph. My engine siezed up and I had to pull my vehicle off of the two lane road I was traveling. The vehicle was towed to the dealership. Approximately a month after the vehicle engine seized because I did not have the funds to cover the repairs at the time of engine failure. Once the vehicle engine was diagnosed at the dealership I was advised that the repairs were under warranty. The repairs took appoximately one month due to waiting on new engine to be provided by the manufacture. My vehicle was returned repaired on 10/31/2024 with the same type of engine. I was advised that engine warranty would not be extended on the new engine. That this engine was only warranted under the old engine mileage and age.

POWER TRAIN
I have a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD diesel truck. Twice while driving uphill the transmission seemed to lock up with a very “jerky” move. GM has acknowledged this problem and has issued a recall. I have taken my truck and have had the recall “remedy” performed. However, THIS REMEDY IS A BAND AID NOT A SOLUTION. The remedy/recall is only reprogramming the computer that controls the transmission to warn the driver that the problem is about to occur and will limit the speed of the vehicle to not exceed the fifth gear until the problem is repaired. I feel the transmission issue should be addressed in the recall not delayed until the issue re-occurs. As per a letter I received from GM the repair that’s needed is Special Coverage N232395330 is the replacement of Transmission Valve Body.
