THIS PROBLEM OCCURS AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ANY DISTANCE, BUT FAR ENOUGH TO SHIFT GEARS IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND WHEN THE AUTO ENGINE STOP IS DEACTIVATED MANUALLY OR AUTO ENGINE STOP DOESN'T ACTIVATE DUE TO DRIVING CONDITIONS. WHEN THE VEHICLE COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP THE TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKS AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO LURCH FORWARD. THE PROBLEM IS NOTICEABLE IN TRAFFIC, BUT MORE OF A CONCERN WHILE PRECISION PARKING AND WHEN MOVING SLOWLY WITHOUT THROTTLE OR BRAKE BEING APPLIED. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN MY VEHICLE AND IN ALL SIMILAR LOANER VEHICLES THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS ASSIGNED TO ME DURING SERVICE. SPECIFICALLY, WHEN PARKING THE VEHICLE AND WHEN INCHING FORWARD TO A COMPLETE STOP WITHOUT BRAKE OR THROTTLE, THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY LURCH FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING AND HIT THE SIGN, ANOTHER CAR, OR CURB. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT INTERMITTENT AND HAPPENS DURING EVERY DRIVE AND STOP.

Opened Oct 23, 2025 · No close date supplied
Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Engine; Engine And Engine Cooling:engine:hard Parts Internal/mechanical
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 1,157 reports of engine bearing failure failures in the L87 6.2L engine produced by General Motors (GM). Of the 1,157 reports received, 173 are outside of the scope of recall 25V-274. These engines are installed in Model Years (MY) 2019–2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, and 2021-2024MY Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, GMC Yukon/Yukon XL, and Cadillac Escalade/Escalade ESV vehicles. The subject engine failures were investigated as part of a Preliminary Evaluation (PE25001). GM determined that these engine failures were due to multiple supplier manufacturing and quality issues. GM issued recall 25V-274 to address the supplier manufacturing and quality issues produced between March 1, 2021, and May 31, 2024. Based on the issuance of recall 25V-274, NHTSA has closed PE25001. ODI continues to receive a significant number of reports of engine failure in vehicles outside the scope of 25V-274. This presents a potential safety risk that warrants further investigation. ODI is opening this Engineering Analysis (EA) to further evaluate the scope and severity of the potential problem and to fully assess the potential safety-related issues of vehicles built outside the recall scope.

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Engine; Engine And Engine Cooling:engine:hard Parts Internal/mechanical
On January 16, 2025, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation PE25001 after receiving complaints and field reports concerning engine failures in MY2019-2024 GM’s full-size truck and SUV T1XX platform equipped with the L87 6.2L V8 engine. These complainants alleged engine bearing failures resulting in knocking and growling noises from the engine’s bottom end and in some cases more severe consequences such as broken connecting rods leading to engine damage, or engine failure. If the engine fails during vehicle operation, the vehicle will lose propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash. On April 24, 2025, GM issued recall 25V-274 to address the concern with L87 engines produced between March 1, 2021, and May 31, 2024. GM cited the root cause as a supplier manufacturing and quality issues. GM’s recall remedy will be either an oil change to an oil with a different viscosity or engine replacement depending on the results of the remedy inspection procedure. To date, ODI has received 1,157 allegations of engine bearing failure. GM submitted 55,464 reports in total, with 29,752 unique VINs. ODI continues to receive allegations of L87 engine failures which fall outside of the scope of recall 25V-274. Based on GM’s recall, ODI will close this PE.
