2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

I have had my vehicle to a GM dealership three times now due to the check engine light coming on and getting an emission warning. 2/13/26 was the first visit. It was right after I filled up my tank with gas that the check engine light came on when I started driving down the road. I got an appointment at a GM dealership. They put the scanner on it and received the codes. They drove it back to the service garage and I went back to work. I received information from them that they could not fix anything because the check engine light had disappeared and there were no codes available anymore. I picked up my vehicle and a week later 2/20/26 the same thing happened after I got gas. The check engine light came on and an emission warning on my Chevy app. I stopped back into the same dealership. And the same thing happened. Scanner, codes, and then they disappeared. The third time I got gas the same thing happened again with the check engine light and emission system warning. This was on 2/28/2026. I went to a different dealership and the exact same thing happened..... scanner, codes received, schedule an appointment to get it in the following week, started the vehicle and pulled out. The check engine light was still on at that time. And the check engine light disappeared once again as I was driving down the road. Each time this has happened I have been able to use my remote start via my Chevy app along with trying to use my handheld key fob remote start. The dealerships have told me this is normal for this type of check engine light emission warning. When researching this issue there are a lot of people experiencing the same thing. Scratching my head wondering why there's not a recall on this.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The engine in my 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 experienced a catastrophic internal failure caused by a failed thrust bearing in the crankshaft assembly. The failure caused the engine to stop operating immediately and without warning. The vehicle and engine are currently at a dealership/service facility and the failed components should be available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The engine failed suddenly while the vehicle was being driven through an intersection, causing the vehicle to stall and lose power in active traffic. This left my family stranded in the middle of the roadway with vehicles approaching from multiple directions. Because the engine failure occurred without warning, we were unable to move the vehicle out of the intersection immediately, creating a serious risk of a collision with other vehicles. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The failure has been inspected and confirmed by the dealership/service center, which determined that the engine experienced a thrust bearing failure leading to catastrophic engine damage and loss of power. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? At this time, the vehicle has been inspected by the dealership/service department. The vehicle remains available for further inspection by the manufacturer or other parties if requested. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning lights, messages, or noticeable symptoms prior to the engine failure. The vehicle was operating normally immediately before the incident. The engine shut down suddenly and without any prior indication that a mechanical failure was imminent.

The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the infotainment screen failed to turn off. The contact became aware that the Bluetooth had failed to remain connected. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed that the infotainment center had failed and needed to be replaced. The infotainment center was replaced. After having the repair completed, the contact became aware that the check engine warning light was illuminated, and the message “Engine Power Reduced” was displayed. The vehicle was returned to the dealer, who diagnosed that the engine had failed due to thrust bearing failures. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The engine was replaced. The vehicle was only owned for 3 months when the engine completely failed and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and opened a case for the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.

I was driving my 2025 Chevy Silverado RST L87 (6.2) with 37,836 miles on the highway and suddenly my engine lost power and my dash said “Needs to restart”. My truck went into neutral and I was able to coast off of the highway. After coming to a complete stop, I tried to restart with no success. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership where they found metal shavings in the engine and told me I’m going to need a new engine.

Driving 30 mph down a city street when heard a pop and vehicle completely lost power at speed. Engine turned off and I coasted to a stop, which was unfortunately at an intersection and due to traffic could not get over safely. All accessories were still on however I could not restart the vehicle or put the vehicle into neutral, which left me stranded in the middle of a busy intersection. Hazards were working intermittently, at best. Had to call local PD to provide traffic control while we disconnected the battery and reconnected it while standing in an intersection. After I was able to get the vehicle restarted it had a check engine light and the OnStar app showed Transmission, Ignition, and Engine Electrical warnings. Had the vehicle towed to the dealership, where they have had it for 7 days and cannot diagnose an issue and are trying to return the vehicle to me unfixed. They stated they typically would not even try to diagnose it for this long, however I have a case open with the GM executive team.

I was driving under normal conditions and the vehicle began lurching, limiting acceleration, with an error saying "reduce acceleration". Was able to get home but the next time the truck was started there was a check engine light and the vehicle was unable to shift into reverse gear. When attempting to put it into reverse, it gives the error "conditions not correct to shift" and turn on the parking break. Trying to drive it with this issue is unsafe. The truck will lurch, limit acceleration, and overall not safe to drive. The truck only has 21k miles on it.

The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While driving approximately 35 MPH, there was an abnormal sound coming from the engine compartment before the vehicle stalled. The vehicle failed to restart and was later towed to the local dealer and was diagnosed with engine failure. The contact was informed that a piston had exploded. The dealer determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The engine was replaced with a remanufactured engine. The contact was concerned that the engine might experience the same failure as the original engine. The contact stated that the 6.2-liter engine had been under recall for previous model years under NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V274000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and other vehicle owners' concerns. The failure mileage was 9,000.

I have taken my vehicle to the dealership, Preston, Hood Chevrolet, Fort Walton Beach, Florida. The problem I’m having is the avoidance system! Not getting warning nor will the vehicle stop an emergency situation where I’m going forward in a vehicle stops quickly in front of me nor will it work if a person is walking behind my vehicle or if there’s a vehicle behind my vehicle when I’m backing out of my driveway. They keep telling me everything checks out on the computer and they keep saying it’s normal and it’s only meant to possibly slow down the vehicle before a crash. They do not give me any definitive answer and they also escalated to GM response is basically the same thing. You can read all over the Internet that a lot of people have this problems. I have friends that own the same truck and it works perfectly. My truck will not. It’s very frustrating because one of the reasons why I bought a new vehicle like this was for those safety reasons. Also, when I am pulling out of a parking spot and turning the wheel, the truck accelerates by itself and goes into cruise control. Only doing a few miles per hour. And this might be because of the location of the activation of the cruise control switch. It is a lever on the steering wheel and it’s easily to engage. And I don’t understand why it would engage at such a slow speed. I’ve had several situations where a vehicle has stopped suddenly in front of me and my truck will not respond at all with a late morning shaking of the seats no alarm and no breaking luckily I was able to stop in time with my own reaction. The technicians will not work on this because the computer says it’s OK. It seems like they have technicians but not mechanics. My opinion. I spent a lot of money for this truck and I’m [XXX] although my reactions are still pretty good. I’m looking at a vehicle that will assist if I do not react. This vehicle doesn’t react and I paid for this and I am afraid when I need the avoidance system, it won’t work. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORM
