| Mar 2025 | ENGINE | The vehicle shut down while driving and would not restart. While driving it I got an odd error message then it went into neutral on it's own then as soon as I stopped to park it shifted itself to park and would not move. Thankfully I was in a parking lot and safe, otherwise it could have been catastrophic on a highway. AAA came and replaced the battery, which did not help. They tried to shift it into neutral so that it could be put on the flatbed but it would not shift. They finally were able to tow it on a dolly using a regular tow truck. Dealership inspected it and found metal in the oil indicating the need for a new motor. It is under warranty but it's going on 2 weeks and we still don't have an ETA on an engine. It's a 2022 Chevy Silverado, 6.2L with 36,000 miles. I cannot get a return call from the dealership GM. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Mar 2025 | ENGINE | While returning home from my son's graduation. I came to a stop at a stoplight. Before I could come to a complete stop my check engine lights came on and beeped indicating I had low oil pressure. I looked at my guage and it was sitting at 0 psi. I gave the truck some gas to try to bring the oil pressure up and it seemed to work. But the damage was already done. It had a steady knock. I pulled over to check my oil level. It was full. I was able to make it home and to the dealership. I told them what had happened and they replaced the engine. This was at around 20,000 miles. 1 year later, 8,000 miles later. Driving home from work I noticed a tick sitting at a stop light. Drove it home and parked it, knowing my past expirience I didn't want to risk being stalled on a busy highway. Dealership just told me I need another engine. First 10,000 miles, my transmission went bad. 20,000 the motor went bad. 28,000 another motor. Instead of fixing the problem they just replace parts. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Mar 2025 | POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | Vehicle Message "Reduced Acceleration Drive with Care" . My car then ran like it was in 1st gear for my drive home. Next morning couldn't go into reverse so I had to have my buddy help me tow it. Went to the dealer and they said that it's "an ongoing issue with GM that they haven't addressed with several vehicles and the part (Valve Body) is on backorder with no ETA. With this horrible safety issue you would think GM would just take the hit and change out the entire transmission instead of making people wait so long without their vehicles. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | When putting my vehicle in park and turning vehicle off keys won’t come out and stay stuck. Problem continues to only get worse and I have to wait to remove key. Battery sometimes dies as I am very busy and don’t have time to sit there and play or wait for key to come out 10+minutes. In the heat vehicle is off as I am trying to remove key and I have a baby in the car seat in the heat. This is extremely frustrating and dealership won’t do anything about it. This is my only vehicle and I can’t afford a rental car while I send it in so I continue to deal with it. Sometimes I have to leave keys attached hoping no one steals my vehicle or belongings. I have taken to a mechanic and they cannot firguee out the issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Tailgate got water in it. Continues to open repeatedly, user cannot stop it. Same part is recalled on 2500 HD and 3500 HD models. However, Silverado 1500 models (with the same tailgate switch part) are not currently covered by recall. This results in dead battery, open tailgate on the road - and contents of bed spilling onto highway.

| Mar 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE | We have had several issues with our vehicle from early ownership, such as, (1) signal light goes from very fast blinking to working. We have taken it to the dealership and are told they cannot duplicate the issue. It seems to correct itself when you turn off the truck and turn it back on. (2) the digital screen about the steering wheel where all all your gauges are have gone completely black. I took it to the dealership and was told that they had to keep the truck until they could duplicate the issue, but again, turning off and then turning it back on seemed to help. Sometimes it works on the first restart, and others it takes a few times and longer times between restarts. (3) OnStar has stopped communicating with my vehicle about a year, year and half in. (4) Google maps has never worked. (5) Remote starts works sometimes. (6) Auto-shut off works sometimes. (7) Air Conditioner started having issues last summer. We have to turn off and on the vehicle or rev up the engine so that it will kick in. This works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. (7) ESC and traction control lights came on, the truck starts shaking, and brakes locked. Truck had to be towed to nearest dealership. The truck only had 12K miles when this happened. (8) Around the same mileage, an injector had to be replaced. (9) Now at 52K miles, we have the ESC, traction control, and check engine light again. Truck is shaking, feels like the gears are slipping when you press on gas, and has white smoke coming from the mufflers. These issues have been report to both local dealership and GM corporate office. these issues have left us stranded 300 miles from home and has left us without air conditioner in 3-digit weather when we had our grandbaby with us. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Mar 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Electrical Component failure in the tailgate handle causes the tailgate to come open at anytime during driving. Also the malfunction causes your battery to go dead | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | Service brake assist message on dash, with check engine light. Brakes are almost useless takes excessive force to get vehicle to stop. Resets after being parked and restarted. has happened several times but will not replicate a dealer. Started with less then 2500 miles on the truck. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | ENGINE | Was on a trip 6hrs from home when the truck began to have a pecking noise. The truck suddenly lost power. There wasn’t a shoulder to pull onto so there I sat in the middle of the road waiting on a toll truck. Had the vehicle towed to a dealership where they informed me the engine was locked up. Had to get a rental to get home. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | POWER TRAIN | I have a 22 5.3L V8 trail boss 86k miles was running great prior.Truck gears started slipping and was able to get it home. Started the next day and check engine light came on and no reverse. Was able to get it to the dealership with the reduced engine power warning. I dropped it off Friday 2/21 and was immediately diagnosed with the bad valve body issue/code. Service was very vague with me at first and gave me 2 options Valve body replacement with an estimate of $3100.00 or a full transmission of $8,000.00. No mention if this was common when asked. Makes sense as to why they did not drop the pan when I asked if they checked the fluid. If this is a common issue I feel as they were trying to lure me into a new transmission for the extra money. That doesnt give me a great feeling with the dealership or chevy in general. I went with the valve body replacement and he said he would order the parts. I called this past week just for an update and asked about parts and then they alluded that they were on backorder from GM not another dealership and he thought he mentioned that. There is no way to track the parts? No loaners available I rely on my truck a lot for work and transporting my family of 4 around. Not very optimistic after reading thats this is a major problem. Has anyone else experienced the brevity when asking for answers? Has anyone else had to pay for this out of pocket? Im expecting the worst and hoping for the best but not really sure where to go from here other than wait. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | ENGINE | When driving this vehicle on 1/9/25, I was on my way home with my wife from hospital. She was post c section and in very fragile state. The truck was in turning lane when it started making a strange noise and immediately shut off out of no where. There were no lights or warnings on dash. It was extremely cold and we had no heat. We called several tow truck companies to see who could immediately tow our truck to dealer as we were in a very bad location, freezing cold and almost were rear ended several times due to being in this turning lane. Tow truck arrived, had to completely stop traffic for us to enter into another vehicle to make it home. Mind you my wife could barely walk due to her operation. This was a very horrible experience. We bought this specific truck as a family vehicle because we thought it was reliable and safe. The truck was towed to dealer where it had been serviced since purchased and was confirmed that the engine would need to be replaced. We looked online and seen that many people had same issue but no official recall has been put out. We called the GMC recall center and they have been attempting to get us a replacement vehicle as we have a newborn and other children and now have no family vehicle to drive. The recall center has told us there has been an engine ordered but they do not have a date when it will arrive. We are almost two months into this situation with no answers or resolutions still having to make a payment on a vehicle we cannot even drive, nor are we able to purchase a new one because of this. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Feb 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | approx. 8 weeks ago, The OnStar Module stopped working. Took it in for repair, dealer tells me "No ETA on a replacement part, we will keep in touch" After further investigation, I went on the OnStar and Chevy message boards, and I've discovered that this issue has been going on for over 6 months in some cases and there are ALOT, i mean ALOT of people having the same problem. This problem causes all of the remote options to stop working among other things as well. In most cases people have paid a subscription up front for a year. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | ENGINE | I received an email from OnStar Notifications on February 22, 2025 at 3:54 am stating my truck had 5% oil life remaining. I have had my oil changed at every required time with the required type of engine oil. I had my oil changed on February 22, 2025 at 3:33 pm. The oil change technician stated that no oil showed on the dip stick. Anytime I have my oil changed, I always check the dipstick to make sure the oil is registering where it should be on the dipstick. It has always been correct. No low oil light warning has ever came on. I looked up to see if these engines were having any issues and found that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has an open investigation on their website posted on January 17, 2025 regarding the 2019 – 2024 model years GM 6.2L V8 engine failures based on complaints of bearing failure – resulting in either engine seizure or breaching of the engine block by the connecting rod. The complaints also stated that there is no detectability prior to the failure. I purchased this vehicle brand new in 2022. I am very frustrated because now I have to worry about my vehicle seizing up while driving and possibly causing an accident and even worse someone getting hurt due to this vehicle issue. I would like to know what is going to be done to correct this issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
