2024 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving approximately 75 MPH, the front chrome grille deflector came loose from the passenger side of the vehicle and started flapping. Before I could safely pull over it became detached and flew over the hood of the vehicle striking the front windshield before nearly hitting another moving vehicle behind me. This caused damage to the hood, the other driver did not stop. While the 2024 model vehicle is not listed in NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V060000 (STRUCTURE) recalled on the 2022 model, GM lists the same part number for the 2022-2024 models, therefore the recall should include these years as well. The failure mileage was 27,500.

I recently purchased a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500. On July 14, 2025, I was informed of a recall involving the L87 engine and a risk of loss of propulsion. This is a major safety concern that can cause the vehicle to suddenly lose power while driving. I was advised not to drive the truck due to safety reasons, but GM has not released a fix or repair solution for this recall. This issue puts my safety and the safety of others at serious risk, as the vehicle could lose power without warning on the road. I contacted the dealership (Findlay Chevrolet, Las Vegas) and GM directly, but no timeline or resolution has been provided. I am now stuck with a vehicle I cannot legally or safely drive and no support from the manufacturer to resolve the issue. There were no warning lamps or prior symptoms before the recall was issued. The problem has been acknowledged by the manufacturer but remains unresolved. The vehicle has been inspected and the recall confirmed by the dealership, but they stated there is no fix currently available. I am requesting that NHTSA take this seriously and put pressure on GM to either provide a safe solution, a loaner vehicle, or a buyback program until the recall can be resolved.

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.
