P0521 has been addressed/replaced almost nine (9) times. “low oil pressure-stop engine” is another one that is not completely functional. The truck is using oil but we cant find evidence of leakage. Services performed at dealership or certified shop. Troubleshooting was performed, im told. I cant vouch for the quality of the workmanship. This should not be an issue at this mileage 100,100 ohe hundred thousand miles and oil components going bad is not good. GMC has sold me a truck that needs a new engine component. Please help. Thanks j.

My passenger air bag deployed or went off as I was driving home from work and made such a loud noise that I crashed my 2012 GMC Sierra 1500. I was startled and scared and disoriented and others around me that I crashed my truck. It has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer. It has not been inspected by anyone. There was was no warning or lights or anything it just went off as I was driving.

Went to dealer,,, told me I need lifters 2600. 00 to fix it and apparently my lifter isn't getting oil in it , "from active fuel management" with I have read all over internet that its a huge problem and people have to pay to fix,,,but wont fix the issue do to the fact the afm cuts the cylinders off causing the lifter to not get the oil.
