Some 2023 Chevy Silverado, Tahoe And Suburban Units Will Need A 6.2L V8 Engine Replacement

6.2L Engine replacement
ZR2 everyone that has had this issue, is the replacement engine any better than the original engine. Seems it will just happen again down the road. Any insight to the fellas, that have had their engine replaced what the dealers have expressed to you about the new engine.
 
@Honusurf I had the engine in my 23 HC replaced by GM after it failed towing an empty trailer on an uphill on I70 in Utah. I've put about 5k miles on it and everything has been fine.
The Z I've had no engine issues with.

If you read the article, you will know the systemic cause and the solution. It was a manufacturing defect that has been addressed.
 
Update: 2023 ZR1 with 5000 miles, total engine failure.
Dealership says they can't find a engine or Radiator replacement. Gave me no time frame, and a POS Loner. I feel like I should be getting a whole new Truck for the Outrageous price I paid on this in november.
Has anyone received new replacement vehicle or is it just a waiting game? There should be more Compensation.

Hate to see this happen! Good luck with whatever comes next.

You’re not getting a new truck
 
I think you need to take that one up the corporate ladder, maybe start with the GM where you purchased the truck from and maybe call GM (no)customer service as I refer to them. Good luck.

My 22 had engine failure Jan 2nd. I got all the run around by both dealership and GM. I went to dealership April 19, and made a very big scene. Not proud of the way I acted but have been very patient and very aggravated at the same time. Service manager called me last Tuesday said my truck would be ready middle of next week. Showing my ass seems to have gotten more done than anything.

Go sit down with the GM of the dealer and make a deal. That's the quickest path. There's plenty of these trucks wasting away on lots. They'll want to sell another truck and they can resell the broken one at their leisure.

Then get a hold of GM customer service and amp things up. You want anything done nowadays you gotta raise hell. *Be nice until it's no longer time to be nice".

You don't owe these pricks an ounce of respect, but they owe you plenty. Tell them you ain't driving that shit box loaner either.

If you don't want to do it, send me your VIN and your dealer information and I'll call them for you.
