Eastern ON | 721k vehicles affected, anything with the 6.2 V8 2021-2024 Silverado, Escalade and Yukons. Stop sale is in effect.
The crankshaft and connecting rods were "damaged during manufacturing process". "The problem stems from internal manufacturing defects, and vehicles must pass inspection or possibly require an engine replacement."
Just my luck I got one , my first new truck last year. I've read GM mechanics on forums saying that an engine replacement would take 20 hours and that they are 6 months behind on receiving new engines before this even went into effect. So I have very little faith that GM is going change many engines. The rumored "fix" is a different oil filter and higher weight oil.
