These arms are designed for lifted suspension and alter factory caster/camber geometry, placing extreme stress on ball joints. This can cause sudden ball joint separation, wheel collapse, and total loss of steering control at speed. The dealership admitted on the invoice they \"could not find branding\" on original parts and chose non-OEM lift components without my consent or any safety disclosure.  Paragraph 2 \u2013 Brake Failure & No Safety Warning: The same service included a full front/rear brake job (pads + resurfaced rotors) using their certified technicians and parts. After pickup, the brakes failed to operate properly. When I returned, the service manager refused to correct their own workmanship and instead quoted $1,900 to repair the very brakes they just serviced. Most critically, at vehicle pickup they issued no written or verbal safety warning\u2014no \"do not drive\" instruction\u2014despite the brakes being knowingly compromised, endangering me and the public.  Paragraph 3 \u2013 Requested Action: The service manager was unprofessional, condescending, and refused accountability. I request an immediate NHTSA investigation into Carl Black GMC's unauthorized use of lift-kit suspension parts on stock vehicles, failure to warranty their own brake service, and reckless omission of safety warnings at delivery.

Sewell GMC inspected the vehicle and confirmed catastrophic internal engine damage. The technician found metal debris in the engine oil and oil pan, damaged internal bearings, and camshaft/lifter damage. Sewell advised that the complete engine must be replaced. The vehicle remains at the dealership, has not yet been repaired, and the engine and failed components should be available for inspection.  Before this incident, I had not experienced warning lights or symptoms indicating that an imminent catastrophic engine failure would occur.  GM and the dealership advised that my VIN is not included in the current L87 engine recall because the engine was built in 2020. However, the diagnosed bearing damage, metal contamination, and catastrophic engine failure appear similar to the engine failures addressed by that recall.

[XXX] Northeast Buick GMC installed a remanufactured short block instead of the required complete engine, reused the original seized-engine oil pan (which continues to leak), and failed to address critical electrical damage.

We have taken it to the GM Dealership, they confirmed the issue was present.  The dealership said the GM guidence was to 1st try a re-program and then replace the torque converter. The program flash was unsuccessful, then we paid $4000 to change the torque converter.  The Tech stated that this was the GM suggested fix, but noted that we are changing the fluid also which could mask the issue if it is the valve body causing an issue.  The replacement torque converter and fluid did somewhat reduce the issue for a short period of about 2 months before it has returned as it did before.  The next option from the dealership is in excess of $8,000 for a remanufactured transmission which is outside our reasonable spend, when we dont expect the remanufactured transmission will have any better valve body components.  The recent recall did not cover my gas 6.2L sierra 1500, although it clearly is insufficient stating that it just a warning that there is a safety risk present.  The valve body of the transmission appears to be an issue across all models and the recall addresses that it is present.  We continue to drive this as the primary family vehicle with the hesitation and jerking present as GM dealer offered no support other than $8,000 remanufactured transmission on top of the $4000 we already spent.

The failure has been documented and confirmed by both an independent mechanic and an authorized dealership.  The malfunction creates a significant safety hazard. Without warning, the truck will suddenly enter a reduced engine power mode while traveling at normal highway speeds. When this occurs, the vehicle will not allow acceleration beyond approximately 50 miles per hour. This is especially dangerous when operating on roadways with speed limits of 70+ mph, as the sudden and unexpected loss of power places myself and surrounding motorists at risk.  The problem has been reproduced and confirmed by Steele GMC in Round Rock, Texas. In addition, the vehicle has been inspected by an independent mechanic, both of whom verified the coolant control valve failure.  Prior to the initial occurrence of the failure, there were no warning signs. Once the malfunction occurred, the check engine light illuminated.  General Motors has issued Service Bulletin #25-NA-185 (revised December 4, 2025), which addresses engine coolant control valve failures on 3.0L Duramax vehicles and outlines the proper diagnostic and repair procedures for this exact failure mode. This bulletin applies to 2021\u20132026 3.0L Duramax trucks.  Additionally, GM has implemented Special Coverage program N252508341 for 3.0L Duramax coolant control valve failures, which extends coverage up to 15 years or 150,000 miles when diagnostics confirm the failure condition.

While engine braking from highway speed onto an off-ramp at approximately 50 mph, the rear wheels unexpectedly locked up. Due to prior rear brake actuator issues, I suspected the emergency brake had activated without my input. It was only momentary, and no fault codes or warnings were displayed. It happened again under the same circumstances two months later, with no fault codes. On May 9, 2025, the check engine light came on, and I scheduled service. The dealer addressed a recall regarding the transmission by installing software. In August 2025, I received a letter from GM regarding recall N242454440 for excessive wear in the transmission control valve, which was causing rear-wheel lockup. On October 31, 2025, while towing a small enclosed trailer at 70 mph on the highway with cruise control engaged, the truck suddenly decelerated, and I was nearly rear-ended by a semi-truck (no brake lights to warn them). The truck would not go over 50 mph unless I was going downhill. The transmission would not shift into higher gears.  I returned it to the dealer, who checked the computer and found no record of the incident, so they said there was no problem. They informed me that the new software was designed to limit the truck's speed if a potential lockup was detected. This recall did not fix the transmission problem or the safety issue. It was simply a way to avoid costly repairs. There is a problem with the physical transmission valve that, for me, resulted in an extremely dangerous situation. The NHTSA needs to take this issue seriously and require GM to replace the prematurely worn valves in the affected vehicles.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"SIERRA 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11709304,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/14/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"01/07/2026","vin":"3gtp9eed8mg","components":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM","summary":"Muti pro tailgate has electric issues due to moisture.

This repair was performed at Gold Rush Chevrolet in Auburn, CA, as documented in the enclosed service invoice.   GM has issued Technical Service Bulletins and product communications addressing similar lifter failures in Gen V small-block V8 engines with DFM/AFM, including Service Update N212353840, PIP5776, #19-NA-219, and related updates.

The EPB should not be in use while the vehicle is moving, but it is coded to not release, meaning whenever you press the brake it never moves back out away from the rotor, causing drag & or even can cause warping of the rotor.   I do not understand the thought process in regards to not letting the EPB release, it acts like the screw type caliper that would have the same issues of every time it moves out it will not go in until taken apart & screwed in, again meaning the brake pad is constantly dragging on the rotor which could in turn also affect the miles per gallon.

The dealership told me they ordered a replacement part which is covered under warranty on May 7, 2025, but showed on \"Back Order\". Every time I call to follow up on the status, I'm told it is still on \"Back Order\", and they cannot do anything to improve the delivery. Why does a customer, owning a \"Denali\" truck under warranty, can't get the problem resolved? I have a recall notice from GMC dated January 2025 about this very problem and have shown it to GMC dealerships during regular services, and still have the problem.  Since I have bought this truck, I have experienced a failed right running board that cost $1,500 to repair a few months ago which is failing again. The driver side mirror now vibrates when I put the truck into drive after being in reverse, and I cannot get any idea on when this transmission valve problem will be fixed which is causing me serious delays in using the truck to pull a trailer.  Prior to this problem I had the dealership replace my brakes which required 2 follow-up repairs due to the \"GMC original rotors\" being warped that required machining to make them not vibrate which to me, now makes them \"used\". This means I paid full price for \"repaired\" parts!

It then started smoking bad out of the exhaust. I knew GM was having recalls on the 6.2 engines so I hauled it to the dealer. They told me it was a bad engine and since it had aprox.62,000 miles on it and no recall it wasn't covered. Since then the dealer called the factory service rep. and he agreed to replace the engine at a 50% reduction in the price, but had no idea when they could get me a replacement engine. After a few days of research on my part I called the dealer again to get a price on how much it was going to cost me? The owner of the dealership ask me to give him a few more days to ask the rep. if he would agree to 100%. My problem now is I don't have it to drive, I can't sell it. and no idea how long it will be before it can be repaired. Plus I am still making payments on it.

I made the appointment for mid-February so had to deal with reduced engine power for several weeks.The dealership had my truck for several days and a recall was fixed and I thought the reason for the reduced engine power had been fixed also. I had received a phone call from the service representative about an issue that would cost over $1200 that I declined. I did not realize that this was actually for the main issue. I was still thinking the reduced engine power was under warranty. I got my truck back but then the next day the check engine light came on again and the engine power was reduced again.

I was totally confused and didn\u2019t understand what happened. This is when I was told that the reason for the reduced engine power was due to a coolant control valve, which was not under the powertrain warranty. I pushed the issue and wanted answers as to why the service manager himself told the mechanic that it was under warranty and was told that the service manager is not a technician and they rely on what the technician says is the problem.

This recall is tied to a serious defect that can cause sudden loss of propulsion due to internal engine failure. My vehicle has shown symptoms since purchase \u2014 including engine ticking, unusual noises, and low oil levels \u2014 all documented by dealership service records.  GM originally instructed dealers to replace engines based on build date, which made sense given the nature of the defect. But now they\u2019ve changed the remedy midstream. Instead of replacing potentially defective engines, they perform a PicoScope test, and if it \u201cpasses,\u201d the only action taken is replacing the oil with a different grade. This does nothing to resolve the underlying issue.  How does a manufacturer go from replacing engines due to internal failure risks to simply changing the oil and calling the problem solved? This undermines the purpose of a safety recall and places future liability on the consumer. A known internal mechanical defect cannot be fixed with an oil change, yet GM is closing out cases this way.  Now I\u2019m stuck with a vehicle I can\u2019t fully trust \u2014 one that may still fail unexpectedly \u2014 and possibly face diminished resale or trade-in value due to an engine that other buyers will view as unreliable or patched over.

After waiting, I tried restarting the vehicle, but it still wouldn\u2019t work. The next day, I received an email from Carfax about an open recall for my vehicle due to engine issues, matching the symptoms I was experiencing. I scheduled an appointment for 4/28, and had the vehicle towed to Elk Grove Buick GMC. At GMC, they couldn\u2019t offer immediate solutions, needing to diagnose the vehicle first. This process took about four days. During this time, I was advised to contact GM, as the vehicle was affected by the recall. I submitted a case to GM on April 28th, requesting compensation for a rental or loaner vehicle, a truck for my business needs. Without it, my business operations would suffer, leading to revenue loss. The dealership\u2019s diagnosis found the engine seized due to a failed bearing. GM contacted me about the recall, initially mentioning the lemon law and a potential buyback, which I hadn\u2019t considered. After I expressed a desire to repair the vehicle, they contacted the dealership for more information. GM later clarified that the vehicle wasn\u2019t covered under the recall, citing the cause and symptoms as not meeting the recall\u2019s criteria. This seems contradictory, as a failed engine doesn\u2019t necessarily contradict the recall. GM stated they couldn\u2019t provide a remedy, leaving me responsible for repair costs, and noted my vehicle\u2019s 70,000 miles exceeded the power train warranty. Recall claims dealerships will inspect and, if necessary, repair or replace the engine.  It\u2019s confusing why my vehicle isn\u2019t covered for repairs or assistance under this recall despite the engine failure.

At 23,000 miles, the vehicle suffered a complete breakdown due to failure of cylinder #8, lifters, and push rods. General Motors covered the repairs at that time. However, at 97,000 miles, the exact same issue reoccurred, resulting in significant engine damage.  The dealership diagnosed a misfire in cylinder #8, leading to the removal of the right cylinder head, where they found a bent push rod, spun lifter, damaged camshaft lobe, and lifter roller. The repair estimate totals $9,746, but GM has refused to cover the costs, despite us having an extended warranty purchased from the dealership.  This recurring failure raises serious concerns about engine reliability and manufacturing defects in General Motors vehicles. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue, as multiple GMC and Chevrolet owners have reported similar problems with the 6.2L engine lifter and camshaft system. This is not just a costly repair but a potential safety hazard that GM has failed to properly address.  Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate any guidance or action the NHTSA can take to hold GM accountable and ensure consumer protection.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"SIERRA 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11645667,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"09/15/2024","dateComplaintFiled":"02/28/2025","vin":null,"components":"ENGINE","summary":"AFM lifters failed which caused cam shaft to collapse under 35k miles.

The vehicle was towed to the nearest GMC dealership where they examined the vehicle and stated that the seal of the oil filter had blown off. They further stated that the oil filter which was installed by Valvoline was the wrong size. Valvoline tested the Champion oil filter and came back with findings that the filter was the correct size and noted no damage to the filter.

I used the Sierra to move items from my houses in my trailer from both FL to PA and PA to FL.  On each trip The trailer brake controller would go out while driving.  The first time it occurred was on a trip from FL to PA, during this trip it happened at least four times.  Upon arrival in PA I took it to Kelly Buick GMC in Allentown, PA.  They looked over the vehicle, saw there were codes in history indicating an issue with the trailer brake system but could not replicate it or pinpoint what part of the system was faulty.  The dealer told me that GM will not fix it if it is in history only if it is currently giving a code.  On the return trip back to FL from PA, same thing several times it occurred, took it back to the selling dealer Starling, and they gave me the same speech as Kelly , can't fix it without a current code.  Next trip from FL to PA, same thing took it to Kelly again, same response. Back to FL from PA, same thing, Starling gave me the same response, they can't and won't do anything.  I told Starling service rep I guess I need to die before you do anything, she was completely indifferent to my comment and backed GM without any regard for my safety.  It is sporadic and inconsistent and obviously only occurs when there is a trailer attached.  They said it was my trailer so I took it to a trailer mechanic, we tested it on its own and on another vehicle with no problem.  The brake controller failed while hauling a trailer potentially allowing a serious if not deadly accident with improper braking capabilities.  Even though two dealers in two different states acknowledge there is an issue they refuse to correct it because they can not replicate it.  The brake controller lights would go out as you're driving indicating the brake controller is not connected to the trailer and providing a supplemental braking system. 2022 and 2023 have this issue.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"SIERRA 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11508746,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":true,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"02/06/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"02/23/2023","vin":"1GTU9EET1MZ","components":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"Less than 5 minutes after my husband and 2 children parked the car and came inside, a neighbor walking rang our doorbell to let us know there was something on fire in our driveway.
