L87 6.2: “NHTSA to investigate potential for engine failure in nearly 1 million GM trucks, SUVs”

There are solutions to disable it. https://www.autostopeliminator.com/

Not bad, but there should be a way to disable in the settings or it should be an on/off button and not a momentary button. Meaning, you press the button to disable and as long as you have it in the disabled position, it never turns back on.

Happened to my wife a few days ago with our kids in the car. 2024 YukonXL Denali Ultimate. She had the same thing has everybody else: without warning it shutdown on the highway. Fortunately, no injuries or accidents caused by it. But it’s only a matter of time.

The dealership says the engine needs to be replaced. I’m trying to do some research on what this does to the value seeing as how the replacement will make it on the CarFax. Does anybody know? Also, will it alter the title?

The dealership has no timetable on when they’ll be able to do the replacement. We are going up there today to pick up our loaner (which, to me is not comparable) so just trying to get all my ducks in a row before we go up there. Thanks!

I have a 2023 Tahoe with only 21,000 miles and the same for me. We are 900 miles away from home pulling a camper and had to rent a truck to get to our distination. Now rent a truck to get back home. No idea if GM will cover the costs. It S--ks.

Supposedly, the service manager called GM today to start the buyback process. I’m sure this won’t be fun or quick.

I find it almost comical that this NHTSA investigation was published the day after it happened to me. Everyone on here who has had this problem should submit their experience to the NHTSA to help push the process along...

Thank you for posting this. Feel free to check my whole feed from February 2023 but I went through this entire situation with a blown motor on my Yukon Denali. I have just submitted all my info to the NHTSA. Good luck to all impacted
