The recall you are showing was completed 300 miles ago. There were no outstanding recalls on my vehicle on November 23, 2025. On this day I was driving home, at night and I heard a loud flapping sound coming from the front of my vehicle. I pulled over and checked the front and wheel wells, nothing was stuck. I got back in and started driving the flapping sound was coming as I pressed the gas, when coasting with no gas, there was no flapping sound. I managed to make it home and gm towed my truck the next day. The shop has informed me that the engine is gone. Even though I did the recall 300 miles ago, it was directly what they were looking for in the recall and did not find it. This clearly put me in danger.
The contact owns a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign number: 25v274000 (engine and engine cooling) in October 2025, and the vehicle was taken for inspection. The vehicle passed the inspection, and the recall was closed. The following month, while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle started losing motive power and decelerated to approximately 30 mph with an abnormal clanking sound coming from near the engine compartment. The contact was able to pull to the side of the road and waited before driving 30 mph to a nearby dealer. The check engine warning light and an unknown sensor light were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed that there was a loss of power due to engine failure and that the engine needed to be repaired. The engine was replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was opened. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 67,000.
I brought my 2024 sierra in for its l87 recall. It passed. Two weeks later I had to bring it in for check engine light. They reset the system under a TSB that is known to occur with the l87 recall. Not a total of 300 miles of passing the recall I was driving and the engine started making a horrible noise and I started experiencing loss of power. I managed to get the vehicle safely parked. The dealer pulled the oil filter and said it had 100% metal contamination in the oil. The filter looked like a glitter bomb went off. It took 3 weeks, they replaced the engine with a remanufactured engine even though I told them new only. They also had to replace the radiator as it was polluted with metal.
While driving my 2024 GMC sierra denali ultimate on the highway, the engine suddenly failed without warning. The truck shut off completely while I was traveling at highway speed. I was fortunate to be able to safely maneuver to the shoulder, but the sudden loss of power created a serious risk of a collision with surrounding traffic. The failure appears to involve the engine or engine control system. The vehicle engine is currently available for inspection upon request. Prior to the incident, there were no warning lights, messages, or unusual symptoms. The shutdown occurred abruptly with no prior indication of a problem. This vehicle previously received the ns25249400 safety recall repair on August 12, 2025, and it reportedly passed all required checks at that time.
Burnt engine oil, breakdown of viscosity, low oil warning light prior to required change, and oil consumption. Multiple events and oil changes with same results of oil fluid conditions and consumptions with low-mileage engine and overall vehicle.
After pulling my 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 slt into a parking space at a local store, I shut off the engine. I observed the lighted ignition switch and the dash icons were illuminated even though the engine was completely off. Having had my foot on the brake at the time I decided to test the ignition switch to determine why it was lit while the engine was off. When I pressed the start button there was a loud, whining starter like sound, grinding like metal on metal. The noise was so alarming that I immediately took my hand off the ignition. The engine was still off. After waiting a significant amount of time I tried to restart the engine. Exactly the same thing occurred. On the final attempt to start the engine, 15-20 minutes later, it started and ran quietly like nothing had ever happened. On returning to the vehicle my wife asked what all the loud grinding noise was about. She had heard it while she was inside the store. I advised her it was our truck! the incident was shocking to us both and because of its bizarre nature I was afraid to drive the vehicle back home. As I already had an appointment on November 6 at deluz chevy for another incident, I called them on November 3 to add this incident to the existing appointment. This incident was added to the November 6 appointment. Unfortunately the service department did not assess the previous incident and only addressed this incident.
On October 23rd at approximately 0900-0915 hours I arrived at a friends house located at [xxx] . As I normally do, I pulled up into the driveway which has a pretty significant incline. I shifted the column shifter into park, and turned off the vehicle via the push button ignition switch. The parking brake/hill brake system automatically engaged as per normal operation. I exited the vehicle and before I could shut the door, the vehicle began to roll backwards. The driver's side door hit me in the right shoulder which pushed me to my left and caused me to roll my left ankle due to the down slope of the driver way. While I felt immense pain in my right ankle, I was able to jump back into the truck and slam on the brakes, causing both rear wheels to lock up and skid in the driveway. I then turned back on the vehicle, noting that the transmission position was still in park, and the parking brake/hill brake was still engaged. I had to disengage the push button parking brake/hill-brake, shift the vehicle from park into drive to move back up the driveway. This time I ensured that the vehicle did not move after following the exact same steps. My truck under went an approximately 30 minute software "upgrade" approximately 2. 5 weeks ago. I believe there was an issue where the park sensor did not fully engage, leading the vehicle to believe it was still in an operational gear, however it does not explain how it was able to not only over-ride the parking/hill-brake itself, as well as allow me to shut the vehicle off and exit the vehicle. This safety hazard has caused me an injury that has already caused me to miss 48 hours of work (I am a federal firefighter) and will require more missed time should surgery be required. There were no warning lamps, the backup camera was not engaged, the only audible sound was the beep that the vehicle makes when engaging the parking brake automatically.

I was operating my GMC Sierra 1500 slt in hilo hi. As I was slowly turning left from [xxx] onto [xxx] my vision was drawn to the rear view mirror. My wife and I observed a huge smoke like cloud above the tailgate of my truck and beyond. I immediately reduced my already slow speed. Traffic was heavy and I was unable to safely assess the problem on the spot. When I arrived at my destination a few blocks away I found no physical evidence that it had occurred. It has not happened since. Even so, we were concerned enough to make an appointment with deluz chevy in hilo for assessment. Unfortunately in the interim I experienced another problem with the truck and asked that it also be addressed during the smoke related appointment. Again unfortunately the deluz service department did not assess the smoke incident during the service visit. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
The first time the truck stopped and wouldn’t want to start (engine light came up) after a few minutes and with a push the truck turned on. Next day while driving on freeway the truck shift hard pulling vehicle back as if it was going to stop without braking. Took truck to GMC dealer on 9/26/25 for an inspection with approx 17,000 miles.

On oct. 18, 2025 picked up truck while leaving dealer I had my family in my truck about 3 miles into my drive we heard a loud clunk and the truck shifted hard slowing the truck down and display reduce acceleration drive with care and check engine light on. Have in mind we were on a busy traffic street driving while other cars had to pass us because we couldn’t speed up. I did not feel safe with my children in the car, left it again for the 2nd time with GMC service dept. Now we are almost reaching to a 30 day grace period without our vehicle.

My engine makes a rattling noise intermittently, misses, and surges. The transmission has shuddered and shifts hard randomly. The transmission has stayed at 2-plus rpm for well over two minutes. All this happens at random times. I have shown videos to my dealership, which did no good because they couldn't replicate it. I have had gm's so-called fix with changing the oil and software updates, which still haven't fixed any of my issues. I've been in contact with the main gm over these issues, and no one has seemed to care. They did scan the vehicle, and the only code it showed was a loss of signal to the transmission control module, which I assume fixed itself, because they did nothing further.

As part of the engine recall associated with my vehicle I had a repair scheduled at parks GMC in greenville, SC located on laurens rd. When I arrived at the dealership this morning I was told that they had the parts and protocol but could not repair my recall because general motors was at random selecting VIN numbers to determine which ones they would repair. The service advisor (kevin blackston) told me that gm was fixing new vehicles first and that they could not determine when mine would be available for repair. I dont understand how they can schedule me in to perform the repair and then refuse to make the repair stating that there is no solutions when in fact the service advisor explained in detail what would be performed on my vehicle. How can gm allow people to be on the road in an unsafe vehicle yet have the parts on the shelf to make needed repairs. The other issue I have is that this dealership is using this recall to [xxx] clients. A few months back when I went in for an oil change they sent me a text making an offer if I was interested in selling the vehicle. When I went in to get the vehicle appraised they told me that they couldnt offer me the amount in the text message because the recall hadnt been repaired and at best could give me about 9,000 less. Which sounds like they are getting over on people and making a lot more money off of gms mistake. I have been wanting to sell my vehicle and get another vehicle for a few months and I am stuck with this potentially unsafe and unreliable vehicle while the dealership holds on to parts for other vehicles. I need assistance in pusing parks GMC to make the needed repairs. If the engine were to breakdown before the repair is completed I could be out of a vehicle for months. I have 2 children to get back and forth to school and work that has to continue with our without a good vehicle. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated!!!! also I have already contact gm customer support information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information a.
On August 3, 2025 I was on the road enroute to my residence. With no warning my 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 slt engine quit. We heard a popping sound and the entire vehicle shuddered. I took safe control of the vehicle. As I intervened I noticed that the dash warning lights were lit. Almost immediately the warning lights went off and the engine restarted on its own. We were startled and extremely concerned about what had just happened. This was the first problem we encountered with the truck. I contacted the deluz chevy garage in hilo for a follow-up appointment.
On July 31, 2025 while traveling on a highway, the vehicle lost drive power—the gear selector would not remain in drive and reverted to neutral for approximately 10 minutes. This created a serious safety hazard due to sudden loss of propulsion in moving traffic. The event was captured by onstar, which emailed an automated incident alert. I later received a gm safety recall notice concerning potential engine loss of propulsion for vehicles with the 6. 2l l87 engine (NHTSA 25v-274 / gm n252494000/001/002). I presented the vehicle to ewing Buick GMC (plano, TX) on July 23, 2025 for recall service and retrieved it on July 28, 2025. Approximately one week later, during an interstate trip to kansas city, the engine catastrophically failed about one hour from my destination, leaving the vehicle disabled on the roadway shoulder. Roadside assistance towed the truck to briggs auto (KS). Briggs auto diagnosed engine failure and ordered a replacement engine. I was informed the engine is on back-order with no estimated arrival, and the shop is under-staffed, prolonging repairs. The vehicle remains out of service. The sequence—pre-recall loss of propulsion, post-recall service, and then engine failure within a week—shows a serious safety defect that can lead to sudden loss of power at highway speeds, risking a crash. Frequency: loss of propulsion occurred at least twice (March highway incident; subsequent engine failure in early August). Warning lights/messages: [gear refuse tom shift to drive mode. ] injuries/crashes: none, but risk was substantial due to sudden power loss. Dealer involvement: ewing Buick GMC (recall visit); briggs auto (diagnosis/engine order). Attachments/supporting docs: onstar email, recall notice, repair orders, tow documentation, photos/video. Please investigate whether 2024 GMC sierra trucks with the 6. 2l l87 engine continue to pose a loss-of-propulsion risk after recall service and whether parts shortages/back-orders are delaying effective remedy.

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.
Dealership is unable to remedy issue stated on recall notice in a timely manner, I stopped by today and they told me they can’t do it right now and they have no idea when they will be able to so in the meantime drive it, to which I stated just drive it and if the engine fails on me then OH well? and they said yes there’s nothing we can do right now. Ridiculous putting my family’s safety at risk if the engine fails and they won’t even do the inspections.

I purchased my GMC sierra at4 from your oman GMC distributor called moosa abdulrehman hassan. The vehicle suddenly stops and transmission automatically shift from 'd' driving mode to 'n' natural. First it happened when the vehicle driven 200km only when I took it to dealer moosa abdulrehman hassan, they re-programmed the vehicle and doesn't know what the problem is. Second time happened when the vehicle was driven approx. 1,600 km and 3rd time again happened on [xxx], engine stopped and transmission shifted automatically from d to n, I have to start the engine and continue my journey. Again, I brought the vehicle to GMC dealer moosa abdulrehman hassan. They kept the vehicle for almost one week and unable to demonstrate or diagnose the problem and asked me to collect the vehicle. Its high risk to drive the vehicle, when suddenly the engine stops and the gear shift from 'd' to 'n' while driving. I had option to choose, Ford 150 or Dodge ram I bought GMC because it suppose to be reliable and have the best safety features. But I really regret now why I have purchased it, there are no technicians in oman with GMC dealer to identify and fix the problem. I can't drive the vehicle in such condition, risking my life and life of other drivers on the road. The vehicle is parked in my garage, it new vehicle just completed 1800 km. The the dealer the solution is very simple, either fix the issue, or replace the car or refund my money back, the dealer is not doing any of these. Before taking legal action and reporting it to the court, which will bring shame to GMC reputed brand. I though I'll give my final try to report it to you. You are the manufacturer may be have a solution. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
I received the vehicle recall from GMC and contacted my dealership to inform them I was having a lagging issue with power in my truck. I inquired if I can bring the truck in to have it looked at under the recall, but was informed that no remedy was provided, and I also have to wait until my VIN# came up for inspection which no date or time frame was available. The next question I ask was can I get a loaner vehicle based on the recall which can cause an accident with engine propulsion failure. The local dealership and gm failed to provide a loaner vehicle which I feel unsafe driving my current vehicle. I also asked the dealership if gm is willing to buy the vehicle back from me and yet again, no response. Local dealership is heritage Buick GMC of rockwall texas.

I received a letter from GMC almost 4 months ago telling me that my 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 was recalled due to an engine safety issue. The letter stated that there was no remedy yet and that a subsequent letter would be sent with instructions on how to have repairs done. I never received a second letter. Also, my GMC app stated that the VIN had an incomplete recall. Today the app states that there are no incomplete or completed recalls. I called my dealer and they said they know nothing about the recall and I should just wait. This is unacceptable and I need some type of resolution.
I learned 2 weeks ago my 6. 2l was part of the recall. I took a business trip in the truck with about 19,000 miles last week. I got home Friday noon. Truck was parked from Friday till this afternoon. Went to remote start it, it started, was misfiring and stalled, I could hear what I thought was a rod clanking. I got in the truck, started it with the start button, same thing. Had my 19yr old son start it with me laying on the driveway listening. It was clearly a rod or bearing making noise. I’m fortunate this happened in my driveway and not on my hour drive Friday. Truck will be towed to dealer Monday 6/2, but I suspect this motor has failed with 20,000 miles for the same reason it was recalled.
