While driving down the street pulling a trailer the engine stopped. I was able to get it to the side of the road. I called the GMC dealer and they dispatched a wrecker. No prior warnings, just a check engine light right before it failed and lost momentum. This is the second of three new trucks from GMC with engine failure, 1st was lifters, and the other two were bearing locked up. All maintenance was performed by the Dealership on all three trucks

At around 1,500 miles the truck reduced power. I was able to drive it to the dealership. The dealership reported the lifters had failed and it would be 5-6 months to repair because of the parts shortage.

I request that GM and NHTSA investigate whether recall N242490120 / NHTSA recall 25V060 was properly performed and effective, determine why the deflector detached, and assess whether improper installation, defective parts, inadequate fastening, impact, road debris, or another cause was responsible. Evidence and Records Requested Please review or provide: • Complete recall-repair records, including repair orders, technician notes, procedures, parts and fastening specifications, photographs, repair date and mileage, personnel identities, and attachment-point inspections. • An explanation for the discrepancy between the April 18, 2025 myGMC date and April 28, 2025 GM VIN-lookup date. • Dealership inspection findings, photographs, measurements, and conclusions. • GM repair instructions, technical guidance, recall-validation records, and engineering analyses. • A written determination of the probable cause and whether this was a remedy failure, improper installation, defective part, unrelated damage, or unresolved cause. • Criteria for determining whether the grille must be replaced or repaired. • Warranty, goodwill, claim, technical-assistance, and customer-service records. • Similar complaints, warranty claims, field reports, damage reports, and recurrence data.

I am filing this complaint regarding a potentially serious safety defect involving my 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali four-wheel-drive with the V8 5.3 engine. The vehicle had approximately 28,786 miles at the time of the incident. While traveling on an interstate highway in heavy traffic, my truck suddenly lost engine power. I was extremely fortunate that I was able to maneuver through traffic and get the vehicle onto the shoulder without being struck by another vehicle. A sudden loss of engine power under these conditions could easily have resulted in a serious or fatal collision. Immediately follow the incident Onstar detected diagnostic trouble code P129F The vehicle was subsequently taken to an authorized GM dealership. The dealership diagnosed the problem and replaced the fuel pump power control module to repair the vehicle. I have since learned that General Motors issued service bulletin 24 –NA-139 concerning this condition. The bulletin specifically includes 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles and identifies loss of power stalling and DTC P129F among the possible symptoms. GM states the condition may be caused by an internal short in the K111 fuel pump driver control module/fuel pump, power control module. I am particularly concerned that GM has been aware of this potential failure condition since at least 2024. A failure capable of causing a vehicle to suddenly lose engine power while traveling at Internet speeds presents amsafety hazard not only to the occupants of the affecte

I was driving today with product resting on the tailgate and the tailgate dropped while turning a corner, spilling product on the street. It was a residential street, thankfully, but it has happened on the highway. Previously, I had bikes resting on the tailgate and the same thing happen. Tailgate will randomly drop while driving, especially with a little weight resting on it. I close it completely, but doesn't seem to matter. It has become a concern and safety issue.

The contact's son owns a 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. While the contact's son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled and the engine seized.

I purchased said vehicle with a little over 76,000 miles on XXX from NW Chevrolet, [XXX]. Dealership service the engine on XXX and remained on their lot until it was sold. While driving home, I smelled gas fumes coming into the cabin and the engine was misfiring causing slight hesitation in motor acceleration while adjusting to speed limits and climbing hills. I told management at the dealership about these issues on XXX. My vehicle is currently in the shop to fix the fuel injection system, spark plugs, grounding issues as of XXX to fix the dealerships mistake costing more out of pocket expense. Management will not do anything about it because it was sold (As Is) without a warranty which I refused to purchase through finance and interest charges on a car loan. I purchased a 4-year warranty through Endurance on XXX with a 30 day wait period before filing a claim. GM is letting their dealerships advertise and sell problem vehicles with known motor issues to consumers while marking up the sale price. Vehicles should never be sold until GM fixes all motor defects before advertising to the consumer. The consumer is at serious financial risk when getting an auto loan paying on a broken vehicle.

After numerous attempts getting GM to finally look at why my vehicle because after the L87 engine swap, which failed after the Pico test and oil, oil filter, and oil cap change my truck has been dangerous to drive. It falls on its face when taking off or driving. It acts as if something is holding the truck back. It takes more throttle to get it moving. Then in traffic while moving it randomly lunges forward very quickly as if I have the gas pedal to the floor. I came very close to rear ending a Deer Park police vehicle. They told me to get my own alternate transportation and they would then look at it. I had to go out and get a rental car. I had no choice. I explained due to my HIGH medical bills following a cancer diagnosis, I could not afford a rental and my appointments. They basically told me come see them when i can make my arrangements. So, i rented a car, took the truck in, four days later i was told that the problem was my ADAS camera. I told them it worked fine before yall had it 3 months waiting on an engine. They told me I would have to pay around 1000 dollars to have my truck repaired. Even though it was clearly something they did. I made arrangements to pay them. I picked up my truck. That evening I was happy. Well, the next morning while going to get coffee the problem returned. I took it back to the dealer. I was again told, go get another rental and leave it here. I have done that. Well, that week went by. I had to borrow money to get the rental for another w

Upper grille flew off on interstate. Hit windshield and landed in median. I have the black grill not covered in the recall.

My 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 was subject to GM safety recall N242490120 / NHTSA 25V060 for an upper grille deflector that could detach from the vehicle. The recall repair was completed by my GM dealership in June 2025. In late August 2026, while driving normally on the highway, the same upper grille deflector detached again in the exact manner described by the recall. There was no collision, impact, or other outside damage that caused the failure. I was able to retain the detached deflector due to my attentiveness however, it was close to detaching and either busting mine or someone else’s windshield. Upon inspection, the adhesive and retainers from the previous recall repair are still clearly visible, and the bonding appears to have separated. I have photographs documenting the failed attachment points and still possess the undamaged detached component for inspection. My GM dealership inspected the vehicle after this failure and determined that the front grille assembly should be replaced. However, because the recall is shown as previously completed, GM has stated that the recall cannot be reopened. GM Customer Assistance offered only $251 toward a $1,673.82 repair, leaving me responsible for $1,422.82 to correct the same safety defect that the recall was intended to remedy. I am filing this complaint because the recall remedy appears to have failed, allowing the recalled component to detach from the vehicle again. A grille component detaching at highway speed could strike anothe

My 2022 GMC Sierra started hesitating two weeks ago between the speeds of 17-35 mph. It also hesitates going downhill. When I try to accelerate it hesitates causing a serious safety issue for me driving. I cant trust to move when I need to move across a busy intersection with semi tractor trailers coming at me. I can trust it to tow or haul anything anymore. This is well known and documented problem General Motors has and the company deems it "Normal Operations" which is totally not normal.
