Consumer Description

In January 2024, I experienced an engine failure in my 2021 Silverado with the 6.2 Engine. My VIN was not part of the recall affected VIN units built in 2021-2024, it seems to have been built a few months before the last affected group, In any case, I noticed the engine stumbling, and the check engine light came on. I was able to drive the truck home, and when I went to start it the next day, the check engine light was off, so I drove it, and the engine stumbled the check engine light came back on, so I took it to the dealer. They read the codes, and cylinder 5 was misfiring. When they put a scope in that cylinder, the cylinder walls were scored, and there was oil in the cylinder. At that point the dealer chose to replace the engine with a remanufactured engine with no additional warranty added, or any other remuneration for the inconvenience. They did not share with me any specific reason (Lifters / Camshaft / something else) for the engine failure.
