    I have 2020 Chevy 1500 with L87 engines on it. We have the exact same issues that the 2021 1500 recall is having. Loses power, noisy engine when at start. Paradise Chevrolet in Temecula told me that they were going to replace the engine per GM but then GM only auth the repair. 8 barring kits, 8 rings 8 piston kits lot of bolts and gastkit and seals. Talked to GM every tho it’s the same engine they won’t replace it since not on recall. Don’t understand how the same engine in a car one year before the recall. I have all the paperwork video of the noise pictures of the Pistons. I failed from the dealer. Had to get the truck towed to the dealer cause the car wouldn’t turn on and all this happened with only 68,833 miles.

    Brakes applied on their own while driving. Before being able to stop the rotors both front and rear were very hot and the smell of burning brake pads was evident. Let the truck shit after getting off the side of the road for a bit. Brakes seemed to release started driving and the brakes applied themselves again. We slowly stop and go drove home a few miles on the side of the road with the flashers on.
