My truck was put on an engine oil consumption plan at ~14,000 milee. Then a month later the engine complete seized while i was driving at 60 mph in the middle of southeast Missouri. The dashboard started flashing with a warning saying that I needed to press the start button. The vehicle came to a stop and i was unable to get it to turn over. I currently have a warranty claim with GM amd the vehicleis at Laura GMC in Collinsvill, IL awaiting a replacement engine. I have no confidence in GMs ability to fully resolve the issue. My life has been completely disrupted as a result of their lack of quality controls.
