Recall n242490120 was corrected on 6/10/25. Grill has since blown off while driving ,couldn’t retrieve it, and caused a chip on my windshield. Recall was for front grille deflector. Dear Learship that repaired it said they were only authorized once to repair and it would be out of pocket expense to repair again.

Recall N262576260 has just come out. My truck has the same symptoms/conditions consistent with the recall. I have a code P0420, check engine light, high oil consumption and loss of power. also, the GM representative i spoke with told me i have an open recall N242450631. it does not show on the NHTSA website and it does not show at the dealer. the high oil consumption has allowed the turbo to damage the catalytic converter and something in the engine to tap due to less lubrication.

I was driving my truck (2019 GMC Sierra 5.3L) while pulling a travel trailer to go camping. As I was getting onto the interstate, without any prior warning, all at once the truck began to shake, make a concerning noise, and various warning lights began displaying on the driver information panel. I pulled the truck off as safely as possible and had the truck towed to a GM Dealer for service. After investigating the engine, the service department informed me that an exhaust lifter failed,…

Engine died while on the freeway. Had the truck sent to my dealer via flatbed with AAA. They diagnosed it as the known lifter issue—lifter broke and metal went into the camshaft and scored it. So I need to replace the camshaft and lifters. They’re quoting me $12k for that. I have 83000 miles on this car and I take very good care of it.

The Fuel pump modular system failed leaving me unable to start the vehicle and left me stranded in the [XXX] heat for hours. The vehicle only has 57k miles. There was a recall for this specific issue for many GM vehicles but not mine. There was no warning! It has been towed to Sheehan Buick in [XXX] and diagnosed as the Fuel pump Modular system but I am being told it is not covered under the recall.
