2019 GMC SIERRA 1500 Complaints

This truck is equipped with the 6.2L L87 and the motor seized up and shut off with no dash light warning and i stalled and rolled over a curb! This is very dangerous and now i have to pay 10k + out of Pocket for an engine replacement! Truck has low miles this is unacceptable and it needs to be in the recall , this is dangerous and it hurts people !

dangerous lost of propulsion in traffic while my minor daughter was in the vehicle, I was driving my truck that has a 6.2 Engine gmc that is currently being reviewed Engineering Analysis EA25-007, I bought engine back in October 2025 and incident happen Early March 2026 Around 10,000 miles

I was driving in a city at 30 miles per hour no acceleration and no load. I lost oil pressure, dumped all the oil out of the crankcase and then the engine locked up. I had it towed to my mechanic shop that i have work done. The technician diagnosed it as a failed oil cooler pressure supply line. Where the solid steel line crimps to a rubber oil hose, that connection had not been applied enough pressure and the rubber line became separated from the steel line.

While driving down the highway experienced a partial loss of engine power causing jerky/rough operation, harsh shifting, and unpredictable behavior. Was told by the dealer service manager that it was likely a misfire in one of the cylinders. After diagnostics and servicing that included changing spark plugs, wires, and a full engine service it was later confirmed to most likely be due to a stuck lifter and will require a complete engine replacement. I have subsequently learned that this is a common problem with this L87 engine and may be an early indicator of failing crank bearings associated with a recall for later model years of my same vehicle. Seems to me that recall ought to be expanded to include earlier models with L87 engines.

Driving down the Interstate 35 in Tarrant County, Texas. Engine locked up. Towed to dealership. Dealership determined that engine is locked up. Had dealership verify oil level was okay and they confirmed that it was. Oil had been services two weeks ago. Engine is a 6.2 L but not the L87 block. Milage on the vehicle is 149,752.

Engine shut off while driving and steering wheel wouldn’t let me turn and I drove up on a curb into someone’s yard , There should be a recall on these trucks with the 6.2L in the year 2019, this is very dangerous I could of injured myself on injured someone else. This needs to be addressed!!

The 2019 GMC Sierra AT4 with the 6.2L V8 engine began making a rattling or tapping noise at 45 mph. No warning lights appeared on the dashboard. When starting the engine and idling, a similar noise can be heard from the engine. I bought the vehicle used from a dealership one month ago, with 80,000 miles, and the second issue is the complete failure of the blind spot warning system on both mirrors. It was a one-owner vehicle with a clean Carfax. I am scheduled to take the vehicle to the dealership's service department for a full inspection.

The oil cooler line is leaking, and the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. This safety concern is addressed under GM Program N192220080. The Hazard is Present: The leak is active. The risk of total line detachment and engine seizure is the same in Texas as it is in Alaska (the US state the GMC recalled the exact same part). An engine seizure and loss of propulsion is an immediate danger to passengers within the effected vehicle, as well as the other vehicles on the road. The Admission of Defect: GM’s offer to provide the part (Part #85136335) confirms that my vehicle’s hardware is part of the failed batch. The vehicle was inspected by an authorized GMC dealership on 01/14/2026, confirming the leak and potential safety hazard with continued driving of the vehicle. The issue was submitted to the GM Customer Care team, Case #[XXX]. The only warning of the defective oil cooler line leak was oil on the ground underneath the vehicle after driving. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2019 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 45 MPH, the vehicle stopped unintendedly. The message “Low Oil Pressure - Shutoff Engine” was displayed. The contact stated that the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was determined that the failure was due to rod bearing failure. The local dealer was contacted and confirmed that there was no warranty coverage on the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that there was no warranty coverage. The failure mileage was approximately 105,000.

Engine light came on, along with 'Service ESC' and 'Service Parking Brake' I drove it to my local GMC and it continued smoking and they told me that if I drove it like that it could blow up the engine. They mentioned a recall on these types of trucks but they said the warranty on my vehicle had expired at 60000 miles. Yes, I took it to Rogers GMC in Hermiston and the diagnostic is, "Mechanical: Valve Lifters - Remove and Replace" Totaling repairs to about $7000 Before this nothing was wrong, I drove it to work everyday and one evening when I turned it on the dashboard lit up and it started smoking.
