My issue is with my back up camera being useless in low lighting and dark situations. I live in a dark community sometimes and I cannot use my back up camera to get me down my driveway without opening both front windows. I had a 2016 GMC Sierra and I had no problem with it. I first brought it into the shop with this issue and they replaced the camera and that did nothing. The 2nd time I brought it in for the camera issue, they said it is a software issue and they are waiting for a fix. (That was back in June) I called GMC Customer care and opened a case, but that is falling on deaf ears as they are saying there is nothing they can do. They tell me to keep waiting on the dealership for the fix. My Daughter, son and friends are having the same issue, but they are adding additional lights. I refuse to do that, as I think GMC should take care of it.

On 22 April I turned my truck in to the dealership service department due to recall of the L87 6.2L engine. Also, told the rep, "my truck was shifting hard". After inspection revealed the valve body needed replacing. My vehicle is still at the service department today with no remedy in sight. I asked if Gm could just replace my transmission because, the part is not coming. They explained they would replace the transmission, but they can't find a 10 speed transmission available to swap out. I call weekly to get updates. nothing!!

The contact owns a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that while vacationing in Canada and driving at various speeds, the vehicle jerked, and the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended while depressing the accelerator pedal. In addition, the RPM fluctuated, and the engine revved abnormally. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to reverse(R) as intended. The contact was able to coast to the side of the road while in LIMP Mode. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed, and it was determined that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that when the dealer contacted the manufacturer to order a new transmission, the manufacturer refused and informed the dealer to repair the current transmission. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that a week later, the vehicle experienced another failure. The contact stated that on a separate occasion, while approaching a stop sign, the brake pedal was depressed, and the engine revved unintendedly. The contact used force to depress the brake pedal. The failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer back in the USA; however, no cause for the failure was found. The vehicle remained at the dealer unrepaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and was awaiting the results of the diagnostic test. The failure mileage was approximately 9,000.

On [XXX] while traveling on a highway, the vehicle lost drive power—the gear selector would not remain in Drive and reverted to Neutral for approximately 10 minutes. This created a serious safety hazard due to sudden loss of propulsion in moving traffic. The event was captured by OnStar, which emailed an automated incident alert. I later received a GM safety recall notice concerning potential engine loss of propulsion for vehicles with the 6.2L L87 engine (NHTSA 25V-274 / GM N252494000/001/002). I presented the vehicle to Ewing Buick GMC (Plano, TX) on July 23, 2025 for recall service and retrieved it on July 28, 2025. Approximately one week later, during an interstate trip to Kansas City, the engine catastrophically failed about one hour from my destination, leaving the vehicle disabled on the roadway shoulder. Roadside assistance towed the truck to Briggs Auto (KS). Briggs Auto diagnosed engine failure and ordered a replacement engine. I was informed the engine is on back-order with no estimated arrival, and the shop is under-staffed, prolonging repairs. The vehicle remains out of service. The sequence—pre-recall loss of propulsion, post-recall service, and then engine failure within a week—shows a serious safety defect that can lead to sudden loss of power at highway speeds, risking a crash. Frequency: Loss of propulsion occurred at least twice (March highway incident; subsequent engine failure in early August). Warning Lights/Messages: [Gear refuse tom shift to Drive mode.] Injuries/Crashes: None, but risk was substantial due to sudden power loss. Dealer Involvement: Ewing Buick GMC (recall visit); Briggs Auto (diagnosis/engine order). Attachments/Supporting Docs: OnStar email, recall notice, repair orders, tow documentation, photos/video. Please investigate whether 2024 GMC Sierra trucks with the 6.2L L87 engine continue to pose a loss-of-propulsion risk after recall service and whether parts shortages/back-orders are delaying effective remedy INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION

My wife and I were traveling on a county road and without warning, the vehicle skipped twice and cut off in the middle of the roadway in a sharp curve with rain threatening at approximately 7:30 p.m. ET August 11, 2025. I attempted to restart numerous times because we were in the middle of the right lane. The starter would spin but vehicle would not restart. The truck then would not shut off and draining the battery. I called for a wrecker and the Sheriff's Office to keep somebody from hitting us. Before the wrecker came, we connected a diagnostic device to the vehicle indicating it was the fuel pump module.0August 12, 2-25, I called GM Roadside Assistance to be towed to closest dealership. The driver said he was familiar with a lot of GM trucks with the same issue. The vehicle has less than 12,000 miles and was purchased in June, 2024.

I have not had an incident yet. However GM itself has told us that the car has a high probability of having a major problem while driving and it has caused numerous injury related accidents. In fact, they will not let us trade the vehicle or sell the vehicle because the car is dangerous to drive. They also have no timeline on fixing the vehicle, which requires an engine replacement. This is also an environmental problem as the temporary mitigation of the problem (I say mitigation because it does NOT solve the problem) significantly changes the fuel efficiency of the vehicle. GM should be forced to let us trade the vehicle back with a solid valuation of our vehicle as if the problem did not exist. No solution short of putting a new engine in the vehicle or allowing us to trade the vehicle in immediately should be acceptable. NHTSA is aware of the problem but for some reason seems to be ignoring it. When VW had an engine problem, which was not a safety hazard, VW made it right. GM has no intention of doing anything about it.

AS PART OF THE ENGINE RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH MY VEHICLE I HAD A REPAIR SCHEDULED AT PARKS GMC IN GREENVILLE, SC LOCATED ON LAURENS RD. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE DEALERSHIP THIS MORNING I WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD THE PARTS AND PROTOCOL BUT COULD NOT REPAIR MY RECALL BECAUSE GENERAL MOTORS WAS AT RANDOM SELECTING VIN NUMBERS TO DETERMINE WHICH ONES THEY WOULD REPAIR. THE SERVICE ADVISOR (KEVIN BLACKSTON) TOLD ME THAT GM WAS FIXING NEW VEHICLES FIRST AND THAT THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE WHEN MINE WOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR REPAIR. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN SCHEDULE ME IN TO PERFORM THE REPAIR AND THEN REFUSE TO MAKE THE REPAIR STATING THAT THERE IS NO SOLUTIONS WHEN IN FACT THE SERVICE ADVISOR EXPLAINED IN DETAIL WHAT WOULD BE PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE. HOW CAN GM ALLOW PEOPLE TO BE ON THE ROAD IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE YET HAVE THE PARTS ON THE SHELF TO MAKE NEEDED REPAIRS. THE OTHER ISSUE I HAVE IS THAT THIS DEALERSHIP IS USING THIS RECALL TO [XXX] CLIENTS. A FEW MONTHS BACK WHEN I WENT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE THEY SENT ME A TEXT MAKING AN OFFER IF I WAS INTERESTED IN SELLING THE VEHICLE. WHEN I WENT IN TO GET THE VEHICLE APPRAISED THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULDNT OFFER ME THE AMOUNT IN THE TEXT MESSAGE BECAUSE THE RECALL HADNT BEEN REPAIRED AND AT BEST COULD GIVE ME ABOUT 9,000 LESS. WHICH SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE GETTING OVER ON PEOPLE AND MAKING A LOT MORE MONEY OFF OF GMs MISTAKE. I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO SELL MY VEHICLE AND GET ANOTHER VEHICLE FOR A FEW MONTHS AND I AM STUCK WITH THIS POTENTIALLY UNSAFE AND UNRELIABLE VEHICLE WHILE THE DEALERSHIP HOLDS ON TO PARTS FOR OTHER VEHICLES. I NEED ASSISTANCE IN PUSING PARKS GMC TO MAKE THE NEEDED REPAIRS. IF THE ENGINE WERE TO BREAKDOWN BEFORE THE REPAIR IS COMPLETED I COULD BE OUT OF A VEHICLE FOR MONTHS.

I purchased my GMC Sierra AT4 from your Oman GMC distributor called Moosa Abdulrehman Hassan. The vehicle suddenly stops and transmission automatically shift from 'D' driving mode to 'N' natural. First it happened when the vehicle driven 200km only when I took it to dealer Moosa Abdulrehman Hassan, they re-programmed the vehicle and doesn't know what the problem is. Second time happened when the vehicle was driven approx. 1,600 km and 3rd time again happened on [XXX], engine stopped and transmission shifted automatically from D to N, I have to start the engine and continue my journey. Again, I brought the vehicle to GMC dealer Moosa Abdulrehman Hassan. They kept the vehicle for almost one week and unable to demonstrate or diagnose the problem and asked me to collect the vehicle. Its high risk to drive the vehicle, when suddenly the engine stops and the gear shift from 'D' to 'N' while driving. I had option to choose, Ford 150 or Dodge Ram I bought GMC because it suppose to be reliable and have the best safety features. But I really regret now why I have purchased it, there are no technicians in Oman with GMC dealer to identify and fix the problem. I can't drive the vehicle in such condition, risking my life and life of other drivers on the road. The vehicle is parked in my Garage, it new vehicle just completed 1800 km. The the dealer the solution is very simple, either fix the issue, or replace the car or refund my money back, the dealer is not doing any of these. Before taking legal action and reporting it to the court, which will bring shame to GMC reputed brand. I though I'll give my final try to report it to you. You are the manufacturer may be have a solution. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

GM is recommending that I replace my brakes for the 3rd time within 30,000 miles but cannot explain the irregular wear. I am confident that there is a larger issue causing this is the brakes failing are just a symptom of a larger issue that have failed to address after 6 dealership visits, escalating (twice - due to first advisor never getting back to me) to GM customer care, emailing an executive, regional service manager, and countless hours to fix the safety issue of my brakes (and the larger root cause issue). GM Customer Care Case #[XXX] - BRAKE SAFETY ISSUE 2024 GMC Sierra AT4 (VIN: [XXX]) - 46,000 miles Nov 2023: 1st visit - Brake squeal at 25K. Pads replaced, GM denied warranty. Early 2024: SAFETY ISSUE RETURNED at 30K miles. May 2025: 2nd visit - Worsening brake noise. Dealer couldn't replicate despite video evidence. Recommended $500 repair. Manager acknowledged "irregular/abnormal" wear. June 2025: 3rd & 4th visits - Tech found unexplained "weird line" on pad. Manager Kyle confirmed unusual wear but no root cause identified. June 10: Opened GM case #[XXX] after dealership failures. July 7: GM failed to coordinate promised appointment. July 14: 5th visit - Les Stanford Buick GMC, Ferndale. Tech rode with me, CONFIRMED BRAKE SAFETY ISSUE but offered no solution. CRITICAL SAFETY CONCERN: Recurring brake defect with abnormal wear patterns acknowledged by multiple technicians. Same brake failure pattern occurring 3 times in 18 months poses serious safety risk. Despite 5 dealership visits, video evidence, and confirmed defect, GM refuses warranty coverage while acknowledging the problem exists. Issue remains unresolved - I've exhausted all customer remedies. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

2024 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving approximately 75 MPH, the front chrome grille deflector came loose from the passenger side of the vehicle and started flapping. Before I could safely pull over it became detached and flew over the hood of the vehicle striking the front windshield before nearly hitting another moving vehicle behind me. This caused damage to the hood, the other driver did not stop. While the 2024 model vehicle is not listed in NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V060000 (STRUCTURE) recalled on the 2022 model, GM lists the same part number for the 2022-2024 models, therefore the recall should include these years as well. The failure mileage was 27,500.

I recently purchased a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500. On July 14, 2025, I was informed of a recall involving the L87 engine and a risk of loss of propulsion. This is a major safety concern that can cause the vehicle to suddenly lose power while driving. I was advised not to drive the truck due to safety reasons, but GM has not released a fix or repair solution for this recall. This issue puts my safety and the safety of others at serious risk, as the vehicle could lose power without warning on the road. I contacted the dealership (Findlay Chevrolet, Las Vegas) and GM directly, but no timeline or resolution has been provided. I am now stuck with a vehicle I cannot legally or safely drive and no support from the manufacturer to resolve the issue. There were no warning lamps or prior symptoms before the recall was issued. The problem has been acknowledged by the manufacturer but remains unresolved. The vehicle has been inspected and the recall confirmed by the dealership, but they stated there is no fix currently available. I am requesting that NHTSA take this seriously and put pressure on GM to either provide a safe solution, a loaner vehicle, or a buyback program until the recall can be resolved.

The dealer is refusing to remedy the recall and pointed me back to GM stating that "GM told us not to service this recall because there isn't yet a remedy".

Intermittently there isn't any sound from informational center speakers, this includes not sound of the turn signal indicators working. No sound from any vehicle component, vehicle has the current software release from GM. the only way I've found to get sound again is to leave the vehicle set not running for some period of time, short off then back on doesn't seem to clear the issue.

I received the vehicle recall from GMC and contacted my dealership to inform them I was having a lagging issue with power in my truck. I inquired if I can bring the truck in to have it looked at under the recall, but was informed that no remedy was provided, and I also have to wait until my VIN# came up for inspection which no date or time frame was available. The next question I ask was can I get a loaner vehicle based on the recall which can cause an accident with engine propulsion failure. The local dealership and GM failed to provide a loaner vehicle which I feel unsafe driving my current vehicle. I also asked the dealership if GM is willing to buy the vehicle back from me and yet again, no response. Local dealership is Heritage Buick GMC of Rockwall Texas.

I am filing a formal complaint against GMC and R.B. Fries GMC regarding a catastrophic engine failure that occurred in my 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali just over a month after purchase, with only 1,188 miles on the vehicle. The engine completely failed and had to be fully replaced. I contacted GMC and submitted a claim seeking a buyback or replacement under the Lemon Law and warranty protections. My claim was rejected, and I was offered no resolution, despite the seriousness of the failure and the fact that it occurred under normal use and well within the warranty period. This alone was unacceptable, but the situation has worsened. The truck is now experiencing additional issues, and I have scheduled an appointment with Eynon GMC (earliest available: June 23, 2025, scheduled through Karen). In the meantime, I am reaching out to other GMC dealers in hopes of getting service sooner, as I no longer trust this vehicle at all. This has been the worst automotive experience I’ve ever had. I expected a reliable product and proper customer support for a brand-new truck, especially one marketed as premium. Instead, I am left with serious concerns for my safety and financial loss. All communication is attached, and I do have witnesses for my claims including phone conversations with service and sales. As of today, I was again told by a phone call from GM that they will offer me nothing. The dealer I purchased it from has not responded. The Truck if I can find someone to take it on a trade (as most are refusing-even GMC dealers) are offering over 10K less than paid.

I received a recall notice for my 2024 GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate (6.2L engine), related to defective lifters that can cause engine damage. My truck was built in April 2024, and I've been told by some sources that certain 2024s may have the updated lifters, but neither my dealership nor GMC will confirm whether my truck is affected or safe. I’ve asked multiple times for VIN-specific confirmation of the engine components — no one has been able to tell me if my vehicle has the faulty parts or not. I was told to just keep using the oil they recommend or wait for a diagnostic tool GM hasn’t even released yet. That’s not enough. I’m planning to take my family, including my grandchildren, on a long road trip soon, and I don’t feel safe putting them in this truck without answers. For a vehicle that cost over $85,000, I shouldn’t be left guessing whether the engine could fail on the road. I’m filing this complaint because GM is not giving me a straight answer, and I think this is a serious safety concern.

I learned 2 weeks ago my 6.2L was part of the recall. I took a business trip in the truck with about 19,000 miles last week. I got home Friday noon. Truck was parked from Friday till this afternoon. Went to remote start it, it started, was misfiring and stalled, I could hear what I thought was a rod clanking. I got in the truck, started it with the start button, same thing. Had my 19yr old son start it with me laying on the driveway listening. It was clearly a rod or bearing making noise. I’m fortunate this happened in my driveway and not on my hour drive Friday. Truck will be towed to dealer Monday 6/2, but I suspect this motor has failed with 20,000 miles for the same reason it was recalled.

I was traveling on the interstate, going a little over 70 MPH as I was passing a tractor and trailer. There were no other vehicles in front of me. Suddenly the truck jerked like the breaks were being applied and my speed was quickly reduced to around 60 MPH. The heads up display showed a crash alert orange symbol. I pushed the gas to try to get back up to speed but the truck would not accelerate and the speed kept dropping. I pulled over to the berm and came to a stop. There was a message on the message center but it went away before I could read it with everything else happening. I put the truck in park and waited a minute then I pulled back out and was able to get the truck back up to speed and home. I plan to contact my dealer tomorrow. The ruck was involved in an accident that damaged the front in earlier this year so I believe some or all of those sensors have been replaced. This is the first issue we’ve had since purchase. If there would have been a vehicle following behind me, the rapid breaking/deceleration could have caused an accident. Also the inability for me to regain my speed when traveling on an interstate was a danger to myself and others.

starting in June of 2024 at 6500 miles my truck started exhibiting loud exhaust drones and severe vibrations coming through the dash, floorboard and steering column on excelleration. The truck has been in repair 7 times in the past 11 months and multiple parts have been changed. I learned that there are thousands of General Motors 1500 trucks equipped with the 3.0 LZ0 Duramax diesel engine exhibiting the same symptoms. A General Motors Field Engineer found Broken exhaust bracket studs at the engine block caused by exhaust alignment and engine/transmission mount stress from worn components. These trucks are coming from the factory this way and continues with 2025 model year. My son owns a 2025 GMC AT4X 3.0 LZO and has the exact same symptoms.

General Motors has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exist in my 2024 model year GMC Sierra 1500 vehicle equipped with the 6.2L V8 gas engine (RPO L87). The connecting rod and/or crankshaft engine components in these vehicles have manufacturing defects that can lead to engine damage and engine failure. If the engine fails during vehicle operation, the vehicle will lose propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash !!!! After contacting my local GM dealers, three of them, NONE OF THEM CAN OR KNOW HOW TO REPAIR THIS LIFE SAFETY ISSUE with my vehicle. Please direct GM to buy back my 2024 GMC Sierra SLT vehicle. v/r [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I have to stop the truck..(per on-star) open the door.. get out.. lock it.. wait 2 minutes.. get back in .. restart the truck, and this re-sets the computers(s). RIDICULOUS! I do not have Sirius but the radio goes dark often for about 2-3 seconds., then comes back on. I was told it is my I-Phone is causing this. [XXX]! What does my phone have to do with AM/FM radio??

Purchase the truck [XXX]. In January of 2025 it started to feel like the engine was slipping. Near the end of February, it was getting worse and the locks started locking/unlocking on their own. The vehicle stalled two separate times while driving on a main road. The first couple days of March, the car stalled, again on the road while the locks went crazy. Then, on [XXX], after I had pulled out of my driveway in my neighborhood, my car completely shut down. We had to have the truck towed to Coyle GMC, in Clarksville, Indiana. And, as of May 1st, it is still there. We have been told they need some cap for the transmission and they don't know when they will get it. They offered to give us a new transmission, but they don't know when they'll get it. I am making car payments on a car that I have not had since May 7th. Unfortunately, because I drive my car for work, it had it's 32000 miles on it, so I can't turn it in for the lemon law. I'm very lucky that my son and I were not injured when the car stalled in the middle of the road.

There was a bearing failure that sent metal fragments all through the engine. My truck went into the dealership on 12/17/24 and i received it back with a new engine on 4/18/25. It has the same L87 engine with the same recommended oil as before the recall. I asked GMC to buy it back from me because it's neither dependable or safe after what happened.

While exiting the highway and transitioning into a turn lane, my 2024 GMC Sierra AT4 (with 12,887 miles) suddenly and completely shut down without any prior warning. All vehicle systems—including electrical—failed simultaneously. This included the dashboard, steering assistance, and emergency lights, which significantly compromised my safety. I was unable to alert surrounding drivers or move the vehicle out of the traffic lane. There were multiple cars behind me, and I was placed in an extremely unsafe situation due to the sudden loss of control and inability to signal or restart the vehicle. I immediately contacted emergency services, and a police officer arrived approximately 10 minutes later to assist. Roadside assistance later pulled diagnostic code P0016 from the truck’s computer. I have since learned that this code corresponds to a known engine timing defect and is the subject of a recent GMC recall issued just days prior to the incident. The failure occurred without any warning lights, messages, or symptoms beforehand. The vehicle is now with a GMC dealer and is available for inspection upon request. To my knowledge, the issue has not yet been independently confirmed, but I believe it is directly connected to the recalled component.

Twice in the last few weeks my tailgate has opened while driving the vehicle. Prior to this, the tailgate has never dropped while driving since the vehicle has been new. The tailgate was not down whenever I left, but it was down whenever I got to my location. I did not hit the tailgate button to drop the tailgate at any time before during or after this trip. On the one occurrence, items were lost from the bed of the truck, which could cause a road hazard for other motorists.

In the midst of driving my vehicle, soon after exiting the expressway. I received a notification across the dashboard stating to press the brake to start engine. It was totally confusing because I was actually driving and doing so at a speed of approximately 45 miles per hour because I just exited the freeway. Then I noticed the car would not accelerate. At that point I realized that my car had shut down on me while in the midst of driving. I had to very cautiously maneuver my way through traffic to the side of the road where I parked and called onstar for help. This was a very scary moment because I felt as if I could have very easily caused an accident and injured or cost the life of myself or an innocent person. The engine shut down was not evident because all the dashboard lights were still functioning as normal. I don't feel safe driving the vehicle and would very much like to replace with something else, but I feel stuck with it. Dealership says that the vehicle depreciation for one year was $10,000.00 and that I will have to roll that 10k into the price of any new vehicle if I wanted to get out of the current lease. That makes the purchase of newer, safer vehicle unaffordable for me, so again I feel stuck driving something that could have very easily cost me my life.

I bought this new vehicle from Diamond Chevrolet in Auburn, MA, in November 2024. The truck currently has approximately 10,000 miles on it. On two separate and distinct instances, the truck suffered a complete loss of power steering while driving on the highway. In both instances, the issue persisted until I turned the vehicle off. Numerous warning indicators were illuminated on the dashboard (Service Power Steering, Drive with Care, Service ESC, etc). A loss of power steering is a significant safety defect, and it was hard to steer the truck at lower speeds. The dealership and General Motors were able to replicate the issue and replace the entire power steering rack during the first instance of power steering loss. Currently, the vehicle is still being diagnosed by the dealership and General Motors for the current yet similar issue. The issue is intermittent but poses a significant public safety risk to the consumer and general motoring public.

As I was driving down the feeder road of a major highway, the light (press brake to start engine) came on. I was traveling around 55 miles per hour. I pressed the brake and pressed the start button but nothing happened. At this point I was coasting as the engine had died. The radio and electrical system were fully operational. I tried restarting the engine several times while coasting along the busy feeder road. I finally pulled into the right side lane (there was no shoulder) and applied the brakes. Once fully stopped, I was not able to start the engine. I called my GMC dealer for the name of a tow truck. The tow was able to pick up my truck about 45 minutes later.

On the morning of March 12, 2025, I started experiencing a ticking sound from the engine bay under throttle. I suspected lifter failure and decided to proceed to the dealership that afternoon for repairs. During my commute, the engine started squealing and shuddering and I experienced a severe loss of acceleration which made it almost unsafe to drive on the highway. Upon coming to a stop in traffic, the engine died. I was able to get it restarted and proceeded to continue my trek to the dealership. Upon another traffic stop, the engine died again, at which point I made the decision to exit the highway and continue my journey along the service road. Twice more the engine died when coming to a stop and the 4th time it struggled to restart. I finally decided to pull into a parking lot and as I was backing into a parking space, the engine died its final time and would not crank/turn over. To make matters more difficult, the transmission would not even shift out of "PARK" into "NEUTRAL" for it to be laoded onto a tow truck. Each time I tried to shift out of "PARK" I received a message stating "Conditions for shift not met"

I am beyond frustrated with my newly purchased 2024 GMC Sierra Elevation 1500 5.3l V8. Back in November I was notified to bring my vehicle back to the dealership for a complete engine replacement. Ever since this time I have had continuous problems with the vehicle. One day after receiving my truck back, I noticed that it was running rough and misfiring. When I opened the hood, I observed a bungy cord still attached to the engine. Several weeks after, the check engine light came on and took a week to get back due to sensor issues with engine. Today, after getting off work, I turned on my truck, but I am unable to shift out of park and I am stuck waiting on a tow truck. There has been nothing but issues with this truck since they replaced the engine. I am not sure if the mechanics at Garlyn Shelton GMC in Temple, Texas, are qualified to replace engines. This is a brand new truck and I should not be having these issues. My fear is that these problems are going to continue because they either did not properly install the new engine or there are still defects.

First time it happened was on November 28th 2024 around 8pm, turned de engine on, selected the reverse gear and stepped on the gas, the reverse gear was selected but the gear didn't worked at all. I almost hit a car that was passing on the street. I out the gear on drive and got the message "reduced acceleration". I believe that is a known issue by GM's 10 speed gearbox. The car is at the dealership and they informed me by e-mail that the part transmission valve body is in a "do not sell list". I have concerns about safety because losing power on a 70miles per hour road can be dangerous and not being able to reverse is also very dangerous. There are tons of posts about it in Facebook.

I have experienced several occurrences of unintended acceleration while operating the vehicle at low speed. Two recent examples; 1) the truck accelerated rapidly while I was driving into my garage, and 2) the truck accelerated suddenly when pulling forward out of a parking spot in the morning shortly after starting the vehicle. In all cases, a hard application of the brake pedal slowed the vehicle. I considered whether this was operator error, possibly engaging cruise control inadvertently while turning the steering wheel, but the incident this morning does not support that potential cause. I have not spoken to the dealer about this issue.

Truck with >15000 miles on it suddenly stops on highway (Dec 6, 2024). Engine won't start but all electrical components work, retractable steps, radio, bluetooth etc. When attempted to start, all electric went black and "push to start button again" came on display. Towed to dealer and after 3 days, advisor says it's not the battery but it might be something electrical. After six days I trade this truck in as they "don't" know what is wrong. After I trade they tell me that the truck needs a new engine but don't why. While taking my new 2025 truck in for a computer problem (500 miles) they tell me they found metal shavings in the oil. I find out two weeks later that there might be a problem with 877,710 6.2L engine with the same problem as mine. Sales says he doesn't know what problem is but he says he may be stuck with the truck for 30 days or more so I should trade.

On 01/24/2025, I was driving my GMC Sierra in the express toll lane at approximately 75 mph. The toll lane had two lanes and was enclosed by concrete barriers on both sides with no median or shoulder to pull over. Without warning, the engine suddenly shut off. There were no warning lights, no unusual noises—just complete engine failure. The power steering also stopped functioning, making it difficult to control the vehicle. I immediately shifted into neutral and focused on keeping the wheel steady to avoid triggering the wheel lock, which could have caused me to lose control and crash. I was forced to coast to a stop, barely managing to find a narrow sliver of space on the median of an on-ramp to the express lane. However, even then, my vehicle was still partially blocking the right lane of the express toll lane and partially in the on-ramp. There was nowhere safe to go, no way to restart the truck, and I couldn’t exit the vehicle due to high-speed traffic surrounding me on both sides. I sat in my disabled truck, utterly exposed, fearing for my life as cars sped past me at 70+ mph. I kept imagining the worst—that an inattentive driver would slam into me, causing a catastrophic accident. Thankfully, after several harrowing minutes, a police officer arrived to block traffic behind me, and another cruiser blocked the entrance to the express lane. Only then did I feel a shred of relief. This was one of the most terrifying experiences I’ve ever endured, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Afterward, I learned that my 6.2L L87 engine had spun the main bearing and now requires a complete engine replacement. In researching this issue, I discovered that the NHTSA is already investigating similar failures in vehicles equipped with this engine. Alarmingly, I also spoke with my Uber driver on the way home, who told me he experienced the exact same failure in his 2023 Escalade with the 6.2L engine. Thankfully, his failure occurred at a red light rather than at highway speeds

I purchased this vehicle new in August of 2024. Approximately 2 months ago when the temperatures outside temperatures started falling below freezing, I would frequently get a message, "reduced acceleration, drive with care" pop-up on the center screen, and the check engine light would illuminate. This happens almost every time the outside air temperatures are below 28-30 degrees. Occasional the truck engine loses power and acceleration, but not always. This code pops-up regardless of the engine temperatures. It has been to the dealer where I bought it each time, and they state that GMC told them it is normal. They reset the computer, and the check engine light goes out until I run the truck in temperatures below 30 degrees. The dealer has been great with me, but dealer reports GMC will not cover their services under warranty as GMC reports this is normal. This condition happens unannounced and almost all the time in cold temperatures. It has happened at least 12 times. The performance can be a safety issue when this condition comes about, and you're driving in traffic. I opened a case with GMC on Thursday, January 16, 2025. It is case number [XXX]. I spoke with Graham, the customer service representative who reported that this issue will be escalated to the regional CE Manager because of the frequency that this is happening. Graham reported to me that this CE Manager will be in touch within 2 business days which would be Monday, January 20, 2025. I received a call mid-day on Wednesday January 22, 2025 from a woman from General Motors. I was at work at my full-time job and could not speak very long. I asked if she could call me after 4:30 PM when I was done working, and she replied "sure, we can make that happen." She advised me to get my truck to the dealership. My truck has been at the dealership since last week. As I am typing this, I just received a call from a Christian. Please review attached pictures, and call if you need elaboration. [XXX] .

I was driving my truck on Friday, [XXX], at approximately 50 m.p.h. The tires suddenly locked up and skidded momentarily and then released. Then a very loud clanging noise started in the engine. I lost power and coasted to the side of the road. Then the engine stalled. The truck was towed to Keeweenaw Chevy/GMC in Houghton, Michigan. I was later contacted by the Service Department and informed that the engine had indeed blown and a new engine would need to be installed. Engines are on LONG backorder. I was lucky I wasn't traveling 65 m.p.h or on snow covered roads, as this incident could have then resulted in a complete loss of control and hitting a logging truck head on.

While driving my truck it suddenly lost power. The truck had been operating normally with no prior issues before it shut off without warning. The truck was towed to a local dealer where they later told me the engine had seized up and needed to be replaced. The truck is a 2024 model that I had purchased new two months earlier. It only had 4,533 miles on it. I was driving at highway speeds and had to coast into a gas station parking lot. I was able to coast to safety, but losing power at highway speeds certainly increases the chance of having an accident.

On December 25, 2024, my vehicle completely stalled in the middle of the highway while travelling at 65 mph. Fortunately there were no vehicles travelling in close proximity to me at the time as my speed rapidly decreased. The abrupt stall required me to pull over to the side of the road to attempt to restart. I was unable to restart the vehicle despite numerous attempts. Jump starting was also unsuccessful. I was left stranded 90 miles away from home in freezing temperatures during a snowstorm on Christmas night. My vehicle was towed to a dealership 140 miles from home as GM would not cover the cost of towing to the dealer closest to my home (68 miles away). After numerous phone calls with GM as well as the GM dealer, I was informed 9 days later that my entire engine (6.2L V8) would need replaced. I was also informed that there are two vehicles ahead of mine that require replacement of their engines and that the engines are back-ordered. They have been unable to provide an estimated timeframe on when my vehicle will be returned to me in working condition, stating it "could be months." When I was informed of the need for an engine replacement, I placed a request for a manufacturer repurchase which was ultimately denied the following week. The agent responsible for managing my case informed me that "GMC requires two to three major failures" before they will consider a repurchase approval. The dealership was not able to provide me a loaner vehicle and I was informed that GM only reimburses $44 per day toward a rental vehicle. My occupation and location require reliable transportation in harsh winter conditions so a truck is the only reasonable option. The dealership charges $75 per day to rent a basic truck. Prior to this incident, the vehicle did not have any major issues and received routine maintenance services as recommended by the manufacturer. It was never involved in any accidents. It only had 17,553 miles and was purchased brand new in October 2023.

November 15 I was driving home from work as the truck started jerking. The system was giving me an engine failure drive with caution warning. I pulled over and decided the turn off the truck and turn it back on. Once I turned it back on it was revving on its own. I decided to turn it off again and it stopped revving but the gears would not shift. You were physically able to switch them but as much as you pressed on the gas to reverse it would not. I had to have it towed to the dealership I purchased it at. It has been 3 months and the part that is needed is still on back order. I placed a compliant with GM and they opened a case but nothing has happened yet as far as getting an ETA on the part.

Since brand new, the engine makes a significantly loud chirping sound at two occasions. First is every time the fuel saving auto start kicks in to start acceleration. The other is any time you come to a stop from above 25-35 MPH. At around 16 MPH, there is a loud chirping as you decelerate. This appears to be a timing malfunction and is affecting fuel economy. The vehicle has 8,800 miles on it, and it is getting worse. It has been looked at 4 times and has not been identified. I know there was a GM bulletin from 2022 about this 6.2L V8 Engine, but they state it is "normal". I have never heard a normal sound of this kind from an engine. And certainly not on a $75K vehicle. Please investigate and make them correct the issue or replace the engines. people work too hard to afford nice vehicles, and should not have to deal with this issue.

Tailgate comes open without wanting too. Few times I've come to find the truck with the tailgate open, has occurred twice while driving. There is a recall for the same issue with the 2500 and 3500 series GMC Sierra. My truck is a 1500 series GMC. Surely same issue and faulty tailgate lock as the 2500 and 3500 trucks.

Engine started making noises. I had it towed to dealership to get it diagnosed. Dealership called me next morning to get information on what vehicle was doing.

I was waiting in a parking lot to pick up the kids from school. In park, the truck loses power and almost completely shuts down. When it Reva back up there was a horrible hammering noise. I turn the truck off. Then I called the dealership and told them. I cranked it and recorded it for them and then shut it off. Then the tow truck couldn’t tow and it took two hours to get it loaded because of the features locking things down. It has been 29 days before the finally told me it needs a whole new engine. They still will not tell me why though.

My truck was put on an engine oil consumption plan at ~14,000 milee. Then a month later the engine complete seized while i was driving at 60 mph in the middle of southeast Missouri. The dashboard started flashing with a warning saying that I needed to press the start button. The vehicle came to a stop and i was unable to get it to turn over. I currently have a warranty claim with GM amd the vehicleis at Laura GMC in Collinsvill, IL awaiting a replacement engine. I have no confidence in GMs ability to fully resolve the issue. My life has been completely disrupted as a result of their lack of quality controls.

On 12-26-24 the transmission on my vehicle failed suddenly going down the highway. Driving down the road a jerking motion and then all of a sudden the vehicle would not shift gears. Luckily the road wasn’t crowed because all of a sudden the vehicle slowed and would not accelerate. If someone had been following me there was no break light indicating I was slowing down. When I returned home I discovered I didn’t have reverse either. If I was in a place I needed to back up I couldn’t have. I took the vehicle into the dealer the same day and they diagnosed the problem was in the transmission. They ordered the part but it isn’t available and don’t know when it would be available. This leads me to think there must be many other transmissions with the same problem as mine. In my case there was no accident but if it had been on a congested highway there could have been.

On December 26th 2024, I was travelling 5 mph or less while pulling into a parking space at a restaurant. As I let the steering wheel return to center, my hand hit the Resume button on the left side of the steering wheel and the vehicle immediately began to accelerate. I was able to step on the brake to prevent the vehicle from hitting the wall of the restaurant. The next day on December 27th, 2024, i was able to duplicate the problem. I had set the cruise at 55 mph before I came to a stop at a traffic light. I released the brake and pressed the Resume button and the vehicle immediately accelerated from a dead stop. I've been an automotive mechanic for over 30 years and I've never seen this happen before. It's my understanding that vehicles wouldn't engage cruise control unless the speed was over 35 mph.

Failed transmission; needs valve body replacement but part is on national back order. Vehicle has been at dealership since 11/12/24. Almost 2 months and no eta when part will be in. Dealership did offer loaner after first 3 weeks. Vehicle is available for inspection, no safety issues as the problem occurred in driveway at home. If the problem had happened on the highway though, there would definitely have been some safety concerns. No prior warnings or symptoms. The problem has been confirmed by the dealer and was approved as warranty work. A recall should be issued.
