| Feb 2026 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No Towed | 9,000 |
| Feb 2026 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | 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.

| Feb 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | While driving to work on [XXX] in Huntsville AL at approximately 55MPH. I was using Chevrolet SuperCruise. I tried turning off super cruise with the super cruise button. It did not turn off, tried pressing cruise control button, nothing, tried the cancel button, nothing, pressed brakes and would not turn off. Truck started slowing in very heavy traffic, it turned hazards on. I was finally able to get it turned off. I have reported to dealer, no surprise they didn't answer, left message at 9 am this morning, no call back. I have made a report to GM. I no longer feel safe putting my family in this truck. This truck has been in shop several times for "Service driver assist", no on-star, no cellular data, extremely slow infotainment system and no supercruise available. The truck at last visit for the service driver assist took more than 2 week. I was told a camera and a software update were performed. The issues have persisted. The super cruise event yesterday was the first occurrence of this type. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2026 | STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Prior to this incident, I had been having issues with my fuel management system give a “reduced acceleration” warning (codes P0087, P228B) in weather below 28-30F. It was in the shop 3 times prior: first time was “bad fuel”, second had my fuel rail and fuel filter replaced, and third time I had my high pressure fuel pump replaced (also had a rear crank seal leak). While approaching a stop sign, my vehicle gave me a check engine light with a “Reduced Acceleration” warning followed by several other warning messages and then ultimately lost power and shut off give me no ability to steer or brake my vehicle. Luckily, my vehicle came to stop and no crash or injuries occurred. If this had been at higher speeds the outcome could have been fatal to myself or another driver/passenger on the road. This incident also gave me a P0087, P12A6, P228A, and P228B error codes. I was able to restart the vehicle and make it home. The following day, the “Reduced Acceleration” message once again appeared. The vehicle is currently at the dealer awaiting diagnosis and repair. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Feb 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The vehicle’s wireless Apple CarPlay system forces the iPhone to connect to the truck’s built-in Wi-Fi network, which does not provide internet access. When connected, iPhone cellular data is blocked, resulting in frequent loss of navigation, traffic updates, and streaming services while driving. There is no option in the vehicle settings to disable the Wi-Fi or force cellular use. Multiple troubleshooting steps have been attempted, including iPhone network resets, Wi-Fi assist, toggling data settings, and re-pairing CarPlay, all without success. This design flaw creates a safety concern because navigation and real-time traffic information can fail unexpectedly, requiring driver distraction to troubleshoot or rely on a handheld device. The issue appears to be a firmware or design limitation of the infotainment system, not a defect with the phone. Using wired CarPlay resolves the issue, but wireless CarPlay as advertised consistently blocks cellular data. I am filing this complaint to report a persistent connectivity and safety problem that affects all users of wireless CarPlay on this vehicle model. The inability to access real-time navigation and traffic data while driving is a clear distraction and could contribute to unsafe driving conditions. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | On 11-20-25 while driving vehicle home a loud noise was heard coming from rear of engine. After review and consultation with automative technician it was thought best to park truck in safe location at house and have towed to dealership as engine noise identified aligned with other reports of thrust bearing failures associated with this engine. Driving engine further was considered unsafe if further damage occurred the engine could seize up while on highway. The Dealership tested engine on 11-21-25 in accordance with GM technical service bulletin and confirmed a thrust bearing failure had occurred. A replacement engine and turbo were submitted for order, but not available to due to back order of these parts due to large number of failures of same engine this year. Only the GM dealership that I purchased car from has inspected vehicle at this time and there were no check engine lights in vehicle when failure occurred. I have since identified the GM technical service bulletin was published in September of 2025 and the Duramax 3.0 has had numerous failures throughout 2025, prior to my purchasing vehicle at end of October. GM manufacturing misrepresented the quality of vehicle during the new vehicle purchase and did not disclose the significant number of engine failures that have occurred this year that could have left me and my family in an extremely unsafe situation. Additionally there has been no communication on how the replacement engine equipment manufacturing has resolved the issue that created the initial failure and I am concerned of driving vehicle in future as the engine failure may occur again. NHTSA needs to record this incident and request to GM failure rate data this year and investigate GM for selling vehicles with known manufacturing issues that place driver/passengers in an unsafe condition when vehicle looses power while driving. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

I spoke to 7 different people before a manager called me later that evening and said my case manager will be Tyisha. The manager stated she was Tyisha's direct manager and that Tyisha would reach out to me within 2-3 days. The manager also stated that she was unaware of the 2021-2024 issues with the 6.2 L motor. I informed Customer Service I wanted a buy back and that 7 Service Departments told me that motor replacements are taking 3-6 + months. Ive been told the repair for the 6.2 L has not been properly addressed and the new motors are still have catastrophic failures. I spoke to 7 local Chevrolet Service departments.

She called stating engine sounded really bad, like a lot of metal and metal screeching. Went to dealership, explained and they towed truck to service department to be looked at on 12/22/2025.

| Dec 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | At random times when you start the vehicle there is no sound. No sound from the turn signals, radio, emergency flashers. Apple Car Play. You have to restart the vehicle to have it reset. You always do not know there is no sound until you have started to drive and go to use the radio of notice that the turn signal is not working. I did not realize that my left hand turn signal did not turn off and at a traffic light I was going straight and a car turn in front of me because they assumed I was making a left hand turn. There was not an accident because they were able to stop. I have had it back to the dealership a number of times. They reset the system. Said it needed a global reset. Even after the reset it still is doing this. Happens more in cold weather. I have recording that are date showing no sound. I have multiple videos but I am unable to upload due to size.
