AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND BRAKE PRESSURE PROBLEMS. THE AUTOMATION TRANSMISSION JERKS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM ZERO MILES PER HOUR OR AT LOW SPEEDS. IT CAN DRAMATICALLY INCREASE THE RATE OF AN INCIDENT DUE TO THE POWERFUL MOVEMENT THAT THE MOVEMENT DOES TO THE WHOLE TRUCK. YOU CAN THEN FEEL THE WHOLE TRUCK SWAY BACK AND FOURTH DUE TO THE IMPACT. THIS "JERKING" FROM THE START CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF HITTING ANYTHING IN FRONT OF YOU BECAUSE OF IT NOT BEING CONTROLLED PROPERLY WHEN MOVING IN CLOSE PROXIMITY AREAS SUCH AS HIGH VOLUME TRAFFIC AREAS, HIGH COUNTS OF PEDESTRIANS WALKING ACROSS THE STREET, PARALLEL PARKING, AND PARKING CLOSE TO ANOTHER CAR IN FRONT OF YOU OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF OBJECT IN FRONT OF YOU. THE BRAKE APPLICATIONS TAKE AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF PRESSURE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AT ALL GIVEN TIMES. MY TRUCK IS BRAND NEW AND PURCHASED ON 9/18/2019.

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.

PE25001 · Loss Of Motive Power Due To Engine Failure
Opened Jan 16, 2025 · Closed Oct 23, 2025
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. NHTSA will continue to investigate complaints of engine failure outside the scope of recall 25V-274 as part ofEngineering Analysis (EA25007).
