-Cylinder number 5 piston failure -Cylinder number 5 cylinder failure -Cylinder number 5 injector failure Vehicle was traveling at roughly 70 mph, everything operating normally. Suddenly check engine light came on, multiple traction control lights, cruise control disabled. Vehicle started to sputter and grey smoke showed out of the exhaust. Pulled over and shut vehicle off, checked oil and coolant level both were normal. Motor temp was slightly above normal. Restarted vehicle and it continued to sputter and smoke. Local shop ran codes that showed injector number 5 loss of signal. Upon further inspection a camera was sent down the number 5 cylinder, cylinder had excessive damage and metal fragments. Large amount of oil seen both on top of piston and on spark plug. It was determined that motor will need to be replaced.

I began having difficulties with my transmission at around 75,000 miles. The transmission began to stutter and slip. The transmission felt like I was driving on rumble strips. Transmission was replaced after waiting approx. 4 months. The transmission was replaced with a new GM transmission at the dealership.

Transmission stalls out when going from 1st to 2nd and when driving down the road in cruse control it shutters.

Front main bearing failure. I have 97,000 miles on my truck. I have the 6.2 engine in it. I see online that GM is having a lot of issues with this engine. My dealer is trying to help me deal with GM, but GM does not want to replace my engine. They want me to pay for it. This issue could have been bad if I was driving at highway speeds with my 2 young daughters in my vehicle with me. Definitely a safety issue.

The contact owns a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, there was a ticking sound coming from the engine compartment. The contact stated that the sound later became an engine knock, and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the engine had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and was later towed back to the residence. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 75,718.

Vehicle Shudders between 35 to 60 mph consistent with torque converter / transmission issues.

Engine shut off while driving home from work on15 October 2024. Driving home while raining. Engine just stop and wouldn't start again.

From the time my vehicle had 30,000 miles on the engine, the engine light would come on and stay on with no apparent reason. I would take my car to my local Chevrolet dealer each time (by this time the light had gone out) and they could not find a problem. One technician told me that it sounded like a lifter problem that they were experiencing with these model vehicles. This happened approximately 8 to 10 times before the lifter failed. In January 2025, while driving on the Interstate Highway I experienced a sudden engine vibration and immediate 50% loss of power. Upon returning home, I took my truck to my local Chevrolet dealer where I purchased my vehicle. Upon inspection, I was told that it was apparent that a hydraulic lifter had failed. I left my vehicle at the dealership for the repair of the failed lifter which cost me $4,800. Two months later, I experienced the same problem with the engine, more violently vibrating. I again took my vehicle to the dealership and they confirmed another lifter had failed and took it in for repair under warranty from the prior lifter repair. I had again experienced more than 50% engine loss and had to get off of the interstate and travel on a side road because I could not maintain a speed over 45 to 50 mph. They repaired the same failed lifter bank that they had repaired the first time. Now, I am holding my breath, just waiting for the lifters on the other bank to fail for me to have to put in another $4,800-$5,000. I believe that this is an engine flaw that Chevrolet knows about. They have done nothing to fix this issue and have left it on the backs of the customer. Chevrolet needs to be accountable for these types of problems!
