GM is issuing a massive stop-sale over engine issues:
Affected models include (6.2L V8 Only)…
2021-2024 Cadillac Escalade
2021-2024 Cadillac Escalade ESV
2021-2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

What we know—the connecting rod and/or crankshaft engine components in these vehicles may cause engine damage or failure.
And parts are not available at this time.
“Until further instructions are received, involved vehicles that are in dealers’ possession… must be held, and not delivered to customers.”
Sheesh.

How many OT baws are going to have to find another way for their wives to get Braydon to the travel ball tourney this weekend?

Precisely why I decided to get a 2018 rather than a newer model. The engine issues of the 2018 exist, sure, but not nearly as rampant as anything post-2020.

This is not good news for GM.
Those engines were bad enough with the failure prone DOD/AFM system.
Now some are not even making it a few hundred miles before cratering the rod bearings.

Gubment Motors. Building shitboxes for 100 years and still can’t get it right.

For starters, being forced to install bogus cylinder deactivation technology to meet unrealistic CAFE standards imposed by our Government.
The latest rod bearing failures, who knows.

Now they're built to be brought in to the dealership where they can get more out of the owner.

I’ve got a 2013 Silverado and I will run it til the wheels fall off

Colleague of mine has had full engine failure twice in the past year. Colossal frick up by GM.
Posted on 4/25/25 at 11:43 am to stout
Honestly, they're way too late on this. The real world failure #'s specific to the 6.2 are astronomical.
Lots of repeat Tahoe/Yukon buyers are getting fricked, bad, and I doubt they will be interested in buying a GM again anytime in the future.
