While driving to work a month ago (3/19/25) I lost the power to accelerate out of nowhere. And my truck started making this noise, what I can only describe as a winding up noise while trying to accelerate. I was going 55mph on a busy morning commute. There were no warning lights. I pulled over and shut the truck off. Checked oil (even though it was changed a week or 2 prior). Oil was fine. Let truck sit for 10 mins then tried to turn back on, it started but had that winding up noise when just sitting in idle, the check engine light then came on after it was on for a minute or so. Ran codes at home, and truck started making an additional rattle noise on top of the winding up noise when had to be turned on. One code was the crankshaft position sensor, we changed that out. Then the truck wouldn't start. Taken to Dealership, and they said initially they found a broken connector to the engine harness. Fixed that then truck started but still making the rattle/clunk type noise and louder than at home so they continued diagnostics because they said the noise sounds like a rod knock, so rod either being bent/broken/slipping. Further diagnostics found that oil and coolant are mixed along with metal shavings through engine so new engine is needed.

Was pulling out of my driveway when the transmission slipped and car had to slam on its brakes so it wouldn't hit me. Then it was sluggish and slipping on my 30 minute drive to work on interstate 81. On the way home it started to get worse and making an awful humming sound out of the transmission. I've researched this problem and everyone is having the same problem with gmc and chevy 1500 trucks from 2014 to 2017. I check the fluids every week and there are always good. It just seems there should be a recall if everyone is having the same problem. Thank you.
