I was fortunate that I could drive slowly to safety and was not on the expressway.   In my research, I understand this is related to a design/manufacturing issue with the connecting rods and crankshafts in this type of engine.  As I investigated the issue, I found that 600,000 vehicles were recalled with the recall either completely replacing the engine or upgrading the oil type from standard to a thicker, higher-viscosity 0W-40 full synthetic to provide better protection under high stress, along with a new oil cap and filter.  In our case, we were directed to change the oil and even with that change, we experienced this dangerous engine failure which cost us $12K !  For that cost of repair, we elected to have the engine replaced for about $1K more to get a 100K mile warranty on the engine.  However, our additional concern with the replacement engine is they gave us a remanufactured version of the L87 and we have not found confirmation that they have adequately addressed the design/manufacturing flaws so may be vulnerable to the same seizing issue.   We appreciate your attention to this widespread GM issue.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"YUKON XL","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
