One or more lifters collapsed, stuck, or lost proper oil pressure/operation. This led to improper valvetrain function, causing loud ticking/knocking noises, cylinder misfires, significant loss of engine power and performance, and internal engine damage (such as camshaft lobe wear or related components). Component or system that failed or malfunctioned: Hydraulic valve lifters (camshaft followers) in the engine valvetrain, associated with the Active Fuel Management (AFM) system. The failed lifter(s) and related components are available for inspection upon request. How safety was put at risk: The engine malfunction resulted in sudden or progressive power loss and misfiring while driving. This reduced the vehicle\u2019s ability to accelerate or maintain speed, especially in traffic or on highways, creating a hazardous situation that put my safety and the safety of other road users at risk of collision or breakdown. No accident or injuries occurred ,  or other symptoms prior to the failure with  details recall, e.g., ticking noise timeline, misfires  Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center?  \u201cYes, confirmed by shop inspection\u201d Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? [Yes] Additional notes: Repair estimate is approximately $20,000 (likely due to extent of internal damage requiring major engine work or replacement). This failure aligns with a well-documented issue in GM 5.3L engines equipped with AFM.

Starting March of 2022 while driving at approximately 60 MPH on the West Shore Expressway my truck experienced a sudden and total loss of motor power. My engine stalled out and I lost my ability to safety steer and stop my vehicle. This all happened during rush hour while driving in the left lane of traffic. This sudden loss of power forced me to maneuver the vehicle to the right shoulder of the expressway across the right lane of traffic. As there was no shoulder to pull over on the left side of the highway. This created an immediate crash risk for myself and other drivers.   Upon inspection at the authorized GMC dealership where I purchased the truck new, a certified mechanic determined that the engine experienced a complete failure requiring replacement or rebuilding of the engine. I paid to have the engine rebuilt at the dealership.  The second instance was similar to the above incident. Once again I paid for the repair.  The third instance was more dangerous as when my trucks engine failed it almost caused an accident. As of today my truck is still sitting in the dealership for over 6 months and no one from the dealership or manufacturer will give me an answer on what has to be done now.   This patter of sudden repeated engine failure clearly indicates a systemic safety defect that extends beyond normal wear and tear. I urge the NHTSA to open a defect investigation into the 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 engine systems.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"SIERRA 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11738475,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"04/04/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"05/18/2026","vin":"3GTU2NEC3JG","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"Paint flaking top above windshield within one year of ownership!

We parked and then we started to try to make it home very slowly which we did and it was not making to much noise. The next day I called GMC and explained they said bring it in. I towed it there to be safe but it did start and still ran at very slow speed. They called me and said that the lift side rockers/ lifters 1 failed and it was stuck due to a misfire and that the engine would need to be rebuilt and sent me over some very vague break down which looked like a lump sum price. I requested and better break down and got a screen shoot and that when he said that\u2019s the best they can do. There were no engine lights on or warnings nothing at all. It also just got serviced at GMC for an oil change on February 27th 2025 along with some air filters.

At approximately 7pm I heard a loud pop outside of my home and saw orange light coming through the front windows.  Upon going outside, I found the rear of the vehicle engulfed in flames.  The fire was coming out around the remains of the license plate, up and around the rear bumper on the left side, and progressing up the tailgate and window hatch on the bed cap.  The fire progressed forward over the next few minutes as the fiberglass cap burned.  Eventually the fire penetrated the front window of the cap and rear window of the cab and began burning the interior of the cab.  About the time the fire department arrived the fuel tank ruptured and began spilling gasoline onto the ground beneath the vehicle.  The fuel tank was approximately 7/8 full.  The fire department eventually extinguished the fire, but the vehicle was a total loss.  My wife and I had been in close vicinity of the vehicle during the afternoon hours and had noticed nothing unusual.  There had been no unusual issues with the vehicle during the prior drive, which had been a 5 minute drive to/from a local home supply store.

Pretty much off the lot we noticed some hard shifting, but over the last year/around 60,000 miles it has become progressively worse. Come to find out GM is aware of a known defect in the transmission used in this make/model and several others by GM which causes hard shifting and jerking while upshifting and down shifting primarily between 1st and 2nd gear. This malfunction has caused the vehicle to activate \"limp mode\" which doesn't allow the vehicle to move out of 1st gear, while driving on the road, putting the safety of the occupants and others on the road at risk. This first happened in January 2024 while we were moving and towing a 6' U-Haul trailer. Luckily we were within a few miles of our destination and made it there safely. Upon taking it to Autonation Buick GMC, we were told they had seen this issue before and the only solution would be to replace the transmission and would cost roughly $6,000-$8,000, and that's with the generous 20% discount they were willing to offer. We opted to have the transmission flushed instead and it seemed to fix the problem temporarily. Then on [XXX] while decelerating and coming to a stop light it hard shifted from 2nd to 1st then the check engine light came on and limp mode was activated. It was 110 degrees on this day in Las Vegas when my husband was driving home from work, and again by the grace of God, he was only 5 minutes from home and made it there safely. However, what if this had occurred with our two young children in the vehicle and we were no where near home? We would have been stranded in dangerous conditions potentially putting our safety as risk. This KNOWN defect in GM transmissions is 100% a safety risk and this needs to be investigated and recalled immediately. There is an ongoing class action lawsuit against GM regarding this issue and I will be looking to get involved as well.

Immediately I noticed I had no power steering, and the vehicle was extremely hard to steer.  I exited the interstate and turned the vehicle off.  I conducted a visual inspection; no issues were immediately apparent.  After several minutes I started the vehicle, and the power steering began functioning.  I conducted an Internet search and learned this is a common issue for GMC trucks, previously resulting in numerous crashes and over one million vehicles being recalled.  NHTSA campaign number: 18V586, GM\u2019s number for the recall 18289. 3/1/22, I contacted GM customer care and was advised my vehicle was not part of the recall.  I was advised to take the vehicle to a GM service center, at my cost. 3/1/22, I contacted Mossy GMC of Picayune, MS, and spoke with a technician, who advised the issue is usually due to a drop in voltage and advised me to replace the battery. 3/19/22, replaced the battery. 3/30/22, upon startup the power steering again failed.  I turned the vehicle on and off several times, and the power steering began functioning.   3/30/22, went to Mossy of Picayune, spoke with a technician, who advised he was quite familiar with the issue, stating this is a common problem with GMC trucks, he advised to replace the battery.  Told him I replaced the battery on 3/19/22, he stated I would likely need to have the steering module reprogrammed, at my expense $130.00, or replace the steering assembly, again at my expense $1,500.00. 4/3/22, while turning the power steering failed, and the vehicle was extremely difficult to steer.  I turned the vehicle off and waited several minutes.  Upon startup the power steering began functioning.   The power steering failure is a MAJOR safety hazard and a recall needs to be issued before someone loses their life.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"SIERRA 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11457511,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"03/19/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"03/20/2022","vin":"3GTU2PEJ3JG","components":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES","summary":"\u201cService- trailer brake system\u201d light keeps coming on.

THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE WHEN NOT PROPERLY ACCELERATING INTO TRAFFIC, AN ACCIDENT IS MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR. I SEE THAT THIS ISSUE HAS ALREADY BEEN REPORTED IN ANOTHER INCIDENT ON YOUR WEBSITE.  I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK ON 02/2018 AND THE REASON I HAVE WAITED TO REPORT IS DUE TO THE DEALER STATING TO ALLOW THE COMPUTER TO UPDATE/LEARN YOUR DRIVING HABITS.
