Transmission issue. Vehicle has the Duramax Diesel with 10-speed transmission. I am aware of issues with earlier year/s transmissions. I have experienced shuddering, jerking, a SINGLE momentary rear axle lockup. Jerky engagement from drive to reverse and or back. Reduced Acceleration warning on display. Check engine light comes and goes. Waiting for dealer to further inspect, drain fluid, etc. It appears from the VIN check that this vehicle had some metal work/paint prior to delivery to selling dealer, paint does not match. The transmission issue at 15,000 miles is just plain scary and not what one expects. That this vehicle sold as a 2023 has same issues as earlier model years makes me wonder if this is in fact a late 2022 model with the known defective transmission valve body? Any help appreciated.

While traveling on the highway, the vehicle suddenly lost all power. The gas pedal became unresponsive, and the engine ceased functioning entirely—without any prior warning or indicators. I was forced to coast into a nearby parking lot to prevent a potential collision. This incident put both myself and my child at serious risk of injury or worse, had it occurred at a higher speed or in heavier traffic. Once stopped, the vehicle would not restart. I had no choice but to have it towed to the dealership for evaluation. A week later, the dealership diagnosed the issue as a locked-up engine, confirming that a full engine replacement is necessary. Unfortunately, the replacement engine is currently on backorder, and they are unable to provide an estimated time of arrival. To make matters worse, the dealership has no loaner vehicles available for at least a month. GM only offers a rental reimbursement of $44 per day, which is significantly below the cost of even a basic rental vehicle in our area ($74/day). This leaves me with limited transportation options, even though I am currently making monthly payments of over $1,400 on a vehicle that is completely unusable. Adding to the severity of this situation, the vehicle is also subject to a manufacturer recall, but no remedy or parts are currently available to resolve the issue. As a parent of multiple children, this entire experience has left me shaken. I cannot begin to imagine the consequences had this failure happened at a higher speed or in less forgiving conditions. I am extremely concerned for my family’s safety going forward. GM has stated they will not extend or provide additional warranty coverage until the repair is complete, which leaves me feeling unprotected and anxious about the future reliability of this vehicle. The absence of warning signs and the total loss of power while driving make this a critical safety concern that must be addressed. I urge NHTSA to hold the manufacturer accountable.

I noticed the gears of my Tahoe grinding when I would let off of the gas pedal. Eventually my check engine line came on. I brought it to my Chevy dealership. Upon inspection, I was told that my transmission valve body was bad and that I needed a new one. I was then told that my truck was ok to drive. I drove it for roughly another month until the check engine light came on again, and I heard the same sounds (I was able to catch it on video). This time, my truck would not want to accelerate past about 1.5 RPMs. I brought it back to the Chevy dealership which is where my truck is today. In hindsight, I believe I should not have been allowed to continue to drive my truck with a bad transmission part.

I filled my car up with gas and turned it on and it started shaking. Several warnings popped up on the dashboard screen including, Service ESC, Service traction control, And forward collision system unavailable. My cruise control was disabled I had to hold my foot at an angle to keep the speed at 45-50 mph, Causing it to take 10 hours for me to get home from Austin to Dallas. The check engine light was on the entire time and flashed for the last hour to hour and a half. I was unable to pull over at that time because it was dark And I was in the middle of nowhere by myself. The next day I turned my car on.The only thing on was the check engine light, Is , however , around 1 pm that day it Started doing the same thing. I drove it from My patient's house in allen To galleria chevrolet in Dallas. They told me my battery was too low to run diagnostics and I needed to replace it. So I bought a battery and brought it to them. They replaced the Next morning And told me there were no codes showing up so There was nothing wrong with my car and it was a fluke. Exactly one week later the same thing happened to my car. I called the dealership and they Hao it toewd to the service dept. After I repeatedly called them to check on the status of my car, they told me it was the fuel injector #1. They then were able to apply for a loaner car for me as I am a hospice nurse. These are same exact issues that the GM 6.2 L engines are having with the recall they just announced. I have a 5.3 L engine. I am afraid to put my kids in my car. Please help get GM to take responsibility for this!

ODI has received complaints alleging engine failure in vehicles after the recall remedy had been completed, whether that remedy involved an oil viscosity change or a complete engine replacement. General Motors (GM) issued Recall 25V-274 to address concerns of engine failure in the L87 engines produced between March 1, 2021 and May 31, 2024. GM cited the root cause as a supplier manufacturing and quality issue. GM’s recall remedy for Recall 25V-274 consisted of two different repairs, either an oil viscosity change or an engine replacement, based on the results of the remedy inspection procedure. ODI continues to receive reports of engine failures after the completion of the recall remedy. To date, ODI has received 499 complaints alleging post-remedy engine failure in vehicles subject to Recall 25V-274, 473 of which involved an oil viscosity change and 26 a complete engine replacement.
