I was driving down I 15 by Mald, Idaho and warning lights came on and the engine died. I had no power a guided the vehicle to.the shoulder. Th truck would.not restart and had to be towed home 80 miles. Since then they have had the vehicle 5 weeks and when I took it home I only got 5 m8les and it did the same thing. They towed it to the dealership and said it blew the engine again. Im.still waiting to hear when it will be fixed. Its very dangerous to drive a vehicle that just stops running in the middle of traffic.

Page 10 of 11: complaints 251 to 280 of 281, newest first, as owners wrote them.
GM has issue with Part restriction on the bottom end of the motor and rocker bearings going bad. No recalls on this just TSB. With that being said the motor blew a rod through the block because of the part restriction on the bottom end of the motor. GM wont fix it because it just a TSB. GM states that this is an issue the customer needs to fix and to look out for these issues. Even though the bottom end of the restriction is a catastrophic failure when there motor fails. I was 20 MPH when the rod in the motor went through the block. Now I got a 50000 dollar paper weight I cant drive because GM refuses to fix there issue.
Transmission started to having issues going uphill, against the wind and trying to get up to speed on the on-ramp of the highway.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle hesitated to accelerate. The check engine warning light was illuminated.

The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 31,000.
Periodically at low speeds my transmission will hard shift. This causes my vehicle to lurch forward. This has happened several times to me. I have taken it to my Chevrolet dealership and have been told that this is a known problem but nothing they the dealership can do about it! I can only speculate but they are waiting for GM to make a decision on what must be done. I believe the transmission is mechanically faulty.
Engine started misfiring at 33,000 miles, dealer replaced fuel injector still happening. Now they are breaking down the engine to check the cam shaft, I guess I will see my truck in 2 - 3 weeks. Front collision warning not working properly for the second time within a year. Dealer says they are replacing the camera.
The contact owned a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 60 MPH, an abnormal, burning plastic odor began to emit from the vehicle coming to a complete stop. As the contact made a left turn, the contact's passenger noticed flames coming from underneath the hood of the engine. The contact and the passenger both immediately exited the vehicle upon pulling off to the shoulder of the road. The contact stated that they were unaware if any warning lights had appeared on the instrument panel during the failure. The contact lifted the hood and saw that flames had engulfed the entire passenger side of the engine bay. Authorities were called to the scene and the fire department extinguished the fire. Both a police report and a fire report were filed. No injuries were reported during the fire incident. The vehicle was initially towed to an independent mechanic but was later towed to an undisclosed location by the contact's insurance company. Both the dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure but neither offered the contact any assistance. The vehicle was destroyed as a result of the fire. The failure mileage was approximately 39,000.
Known exhaust leak issues from under the truck as well as under the hood allowing raw exhaust to enter the cab. CO levels increase to a unsafe level while leak is present. Dealer who looked at the issues states the exhaust leak is "normal". Worried about CO poisoning causing drowsiness and potential accidents being blamed on driving tired where reality is this is a byproduct of CO exposure.
Driving on busy road and the engine cut off completely without warning on a busy Highway. The first time it happened vehicle could be restarted and get to dealership and no code and unable to figure out the cause. Second time driving again on a busy road and happened on a curve and it shut down and would not restart and then had to wait for a tow and call for police to help due to busy traffic area as well. Engine has to be completely replaced. Vehicle only has 24000 miles and is 2022. Now I’m told it needs new engine and it has been 4 weeks and backordered…how has this not been a safety issue already and a concern prior? GM should be doing more. I’m concerned to get this truck back and have the same problem again.
I was driving on [XXX] where the speed limit varies from 65-75 MPH. I hit 70mph and randomly the truck jolted and dropped down to 40mph without warning. Cars swerved to avoid hitting me and I was shaken. I called the dealership who said there are no recalls and nothing to worry about, but call if it happens again. Two days later I was driving up to Pa from TN. 7 hours away from home and also on [XXX] and the truck did it again 3 times in a row. The truck was bouncing all over the highway and people trying their best to avoid me. I managed to get off but did hit and go over something when I was getting off the highway. I took the back streets and found a dealer. The transmission needs to be replaced the think, on a 2 year old truck with 50k miles. Apparently factory caused electrical issues. This truck has been an electrical nightmare since we purchased it. They need to issue a recall with all the transmission and engine issues that Chevy is experiencing.

Vehicle engine blew up stopped running. I was driving up Highway 17 leaving Santa Cruz heading towards Sacramento when Engine failed was able to pull off the side of the freeway without being sideswiped had to have CHP come and shut down the number one lane in order to get vehicle towed. Was pulling a travel trailer. Vehicle and trailer were towed to the closest hotel in Scotts Valley the following day truck was towed to Watsonville Chevrolet where they tore the engine apart and found the catastrophic failure of the engine, vehicle was inspected by Watsonville Chevrolet mechanic. There were no warning mites before engine stopped working no warning and was very fortunate by God's graces to get off the side of the highway before being sideswiped or rear-ended. The repair took 47 days to fix two days after I got the vehicle back the battery was dead because certain electrical components like battery and stereo were not reconnected therefore caused a drain and would not start. Had to call GM again to have the vehicle towed to Folsom Chevrolet California where they kept the vehicle for 9 days to fix the problem which was electrical.

7500 oil change, tire rotation multi vehicle inspection appt. With issues. - didn't do oil change/inspection. Because of major issue with transmission/engine. Vehicle running rough, happens at idle or while driving. Sounds lik it will stall. When u put vehicle in gear drive or reverse vehicle lunges towards direction its in gear. Radio lights on dash decide to dim on their own, shuts off on its own. Will not let u adjust dimness you must shut off for it to re light up which is a 50/50 chance. Going over bumps loud noise coming from rear, vehicle does get squirmy when you hit a large bump. Large loud whinging noise upon acceleration. Intermittent issue with key fobs usually spare key not found on dash. Still. Diagnosis papers attached. It is a balance shift gear crank shaft case; they have to remove the transmission and the engine completely from my truck and replace parts! Takes over 1.5 for parts to get delivered, plus they will have my vehicle for 7 days plua approx to do repair. But for now they told me it's cool that I drove it still with crank shaft and balance gear shift issues! They cannot do 7500 mile oil change as they have to remove the engine and they want to wait to do oil so its not wasted when they have to rip engine out. All other issues will be address once this issue is fixed because they are hoping that these problems are solved with the major repair. Tsb# 23-NA-015.
Idling rough still. Even after bcm replacement a week ago. Messages for "key not found" only one more start allowed. Grinding noise like over cranking when you hit engine button. Diagnostics showed 93 misfires on cyl 4. No tsb. Drove vehicle again attempting to duplicate and couldn't find issue. Replaced #4 spark plug. Reprogrammed the bcm as dealership forgot a step to program both keys.

bran new got it 0 miles. vehicle began stalling and then began jerking now vehicle only has 4000 miles. Dealer said it a transmission problem. the vehicle stated jerking while I was on hwy going about 65-70 miles. No warning lights came on.
After 10000 miles my transmission is shifting erratically, especially in the morning
My transmission has been slipping and shifting very hard. The dealer tried relearning the transmission twice and that did not solve the problem. The cooler line has failed and now the transmission is being replaced. The radiator also failed and started leaking. The turbo is making either a metal on metal grinding noise or a bearing squeaking noise.
While driving on a road trip the vehicle created a loud bang from the engine, then ran smoothly for another 20 minutes. The vehicle was then parked for about 3 hours. When the vehicle was started again the engine ran rough and banging sound was constant. Called dealer who stated that the vehicle was safe to continue to drive since there was no check engine light on. Drove the vehicle home and the banging sound was consistent as well as running rough. Vehicle was towed to the dealership. Lifter on both sides of the engine were at faulted and needed replacing.
High Co2 in cab every time I start the truck due to exhaust leak
The car has been running in remote start mode.mode. The problem with this car is that even when I shut off the vehicle, the engine keeps running.Onstar was able to come in overnight to retrieve the truck and deliver it to the dealer. It's not safe to drive a truck in these conditions, but since my family and I were on the other side of town, we decided to slow down and head home. Note : The truck was full of gas This is a safety issue that must be addressed as people leave their trucks inside their homes while the truck is still on. It also increase the level of CO2 inside the house hold . Another fact while the truck stayed on the air condition system also stayed on ( full power ) and i start smelling burned motor which i belive this would caused fire
While on vacation, Engine light came on , returned home due to excessive DEF usage, poor fuel mileage and heavy deisel smell in cab. Brought vehicle in to Gerry Lane on 11/8/22. *Was told 7-10 days to get parts an not to drive, May Catch On Fire due to an open exhaust. (Concerned because we drove home over 1,200 miles). From Service Advisor.. Our tech found the number exhaust gas temperature sensor missing from the diesel particulate filter and catalytic converter assembly, likely blown out due to excess pressure in the system. We’re going to replace that sensor, the DPF/converter assembly, and the relevant seals, gaskets, and clamps for that repair.
One week prior to the incident my engine had a loud ticking/knocking noise when starting up especially on a cold start, one night before thanksgiving driving to California I had my truck on cruise control 80mph when suddenly without any warning the engine shut off! My touch screen and speed gauge were still on I tried pulling over as quickly as I can with my emergency flashers on, I was almost side struck by trailers passing by me doing so! My truck got towed to the nearest Chevy dealer where I was told it was an electrical issue at first, then 3 hours after that call the service team called again telling me they have found metal engine shavings and pieces in my engine while draining my engine oil. Service team told me they contacted GM for a new engine replacement and my truck will be in their shop for a month waiting for delivery and working on my truck. All this damage because of the AFM DFM feature in V8 engines and it happening at 7,000 miles it’s unacceptable.
