NHTSA Complaint #11718872 — 2024 GMC SIERRA 1500

1) In May of 2025 I attempted to have the dealership complete the recall which the GM app told me to schedule. Related to the L87 engine failure. According to their own document my engine manufacture date was to be replaced a defective. The dealer told me that there was "no resolution for the issue and turned me away. (see attachments) 2) In June GM changed the procedure adding the PICO test. (see attachment) 3) In October I received the official recall notice and scheduled the test. At the prior service visit I had the dealer give me back the old oil filter. I took it apart and found metal fillings in it. I reported this to the dealer. The truck had the PICO test and passed. They told me that "the filter did its job and the metal in it was normal wear and tear". They replaced the oil cap and filled it with thicker oil. I was sent on my way, told to call if I had any issues. 4) On 2-6-25 while driving 65 MPH on the highway, the engine just shut off without warning. The dash displayed "press start again" while I was traveling at 65MPH. I was able to pull to the side and restart the engine. Service was scheduled and performed on 2-10-26. They found no codes in the computer and could not find the issue. 5) On 2-13-26 while driving 75 on the interstate the engine stopped, the display read "press start again". I was able to coast through traffic and got to the shoulder. After some time and playing with the buttons I was able to get the truck into park. Then I started the engine. I made it off the freeway and onto a side road. I drove a few miles further and stopped for a stop sign. The truck was again dead, displaying "press start again". After several attempts and my vehicle in traffic, I got it to start. It drove for a mile more and the truck was dead. I had it towed to the dealership where they are working in it. It requires a new engine. 6) GM failed and endangered my family while traveling at freeway speeds. They should buy back their failure.
