    I have a 2019 gmc sierra 1500 elevation. The dash indicated low oil with 60lbs of oil pressure. I stop park my vehicle and see there is a puddle of oil underneath my truck. It appears to be leaking (extremely high flow rate) from the oil cooler lines where the rubber has given way from the metal crimping. Apparently after calling the dealership and reading online there isn't any type of recal for this issue even tho there is a Customer Satisfaction Program N212326940 implemented for Alaska and Canada due to the cold weather climate causing the failure. I live in western Pennsylvania and currently had a cold snap of 11°F. The dealership wants me to pay out of pocket and take my vehicle in to get diagnosed for service , which also means paying to have it towed to the dealership since it is un-drivable . Then pay for the very obvious service and file to see if I can be potentially reimbursed. This vehicle has less than 70,000 miles on it and is outside of the warranty. However this is a reported common issue online and even through the service department in Zelienople Pennsylvania because the tech. Told me they have the parts in stock because they do alot of them when I was inquiring into the issue.

    At around 28,000 miles the truck started having intermittent electrical issues. The head unit will show a blue screen. Safty systems will automatically disable. Camera system failures. Even though the truck is a 2019 model it only has around 31,000 miles on it and is now out of warranty and I can’t afford to have the dealership chase electric issues. GMC should be ashamed of putting out such an unreliable vehicle.

    Issue 1: Driver side front seat airbag connector separated disabling the airbag. (repaired at my cost) Issue 2: Transmission (10 speed auto) developed stutter and skip consistent with complaints resulting in recall of 2020 (next model year truck) due to risk of rear wheel lock up. GM needs to include the 2019 models that were built as 2019 (as 2020) in one of the plants while they continued to build the 2018 as 2018 "classics" during the changeover. My cost to repair will be $3600 and there is not guarantee that the new valve body is any better or if GM is simply giving me another 46k miles to wait for another failure.
