Consumer Description
A lifter in my cylinder is bad and damage to my cam shaft. This truck also has the 6.2L engine that was recalled for other GMC Vehicles.My safety was put at risk as I was driving it and it started smoking. I have had 2 different mechanics look at it. One mechanic was an independent business, the other was a certified GMC dealer. There was no warning lamps or messages.
