Consumer Description

Blown motor on 2023 Yukon (after owning the SUV exactly 1 month). 3600 miles on it. Picked it up January 9, 2023, motor blown on Feb 9th, 2023. From my dealer: Tech found perform tear down on the engine- remove lower oil pan and discovery metal inside the oil pan. perform inspect on the bottom engine and found rod bearings spun- causing internal premature engine failure. Final ticket write up included: engine appeared to be “starving for oil” cylinders #5 & 6 piston rod bearings seized. Major internal engine failure. I went through the full engine replacement at a local dealer then dealt with GM for 2 months and eventually they did fully replace this vehicle with a new 2023 GMC YUKON. Luckily expedited the build as the first one took 9 months to receive. we took deliver of new vehicle in June of 2023. Can provide the new VIN if necessary. Current 6.2L has about 30k miles on it .
