I AM A HEAVY HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION INSPECTOR FOR WVDOH AND WHILE WORKING ON I 81 SB IN MARTINSBURG, WV THIS MORNING AROUND 2:00 AM WHILE PERFORMING MY DUTIES I ATTEMPTED TO PULL OUT OF MY LANE CLOSURE INTO TRAFFIC WHEN MY TRUCK LITERALLY GOT STUCK HALFWAY OUT INTO LIVE TRAFFIC. IT WAS AS IF I WAS STOMPING ON THE BRAKES INSTEAD OF GIVING IT GAS. FORTUNATELY I REACTED SWIFTLY AND PUT THE TRUCK IN REVERSE TO BACK INTO MY LANE CLOSURE PREVENTING A COLLISION WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER TRAVELING AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH. I WAS LITERALLY SHAKING WHEN I REALIZED HOW CLOSE OF A CALL IT ACTUALLY WAS AND THAT NOT ONLY COULD I OR THE TRUCK DRIVER HAVE BEEN KILLED, BUT SO COULD THE WORKERS ON MY JOB HAVE BEEN INJURED AND/OR KILLED. I HAD TO HAVE MY TRUCK TOWED BACK TO MY FIELD OFFICE. FOR SOME REASON THE TRUCK STARTED DRIVING PROPERLY AGAIN. THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG AND IT IS EXTREMELY FORTUNATE THAT NO INJURIES OCCURRED ON MY PROJECT. I DID NOTICE A POST ON THIS WEBSITE EXPLAINING THE VERY THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME THIS MORNING. THIS ISSUE MUST BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE PEOPLE ARE KILLED.

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).
