Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Hello, I am writing this complaint because i bought this 2021 GMC Yukon new from King GMC in Loveland CO. The engine seized up on me while driving once turned off, i was able to get it going and now it has done it again but this time no luck getting it going, Maintenace has always been maintained and up kept, and the more i read about this i am finding out its a problem that everyone is getting with this 6.2 litter engines. The dealer wants to charge me 30k to change the engine and radiator and cooler lines on an already ridiculous overpriced vehicle. I am not sure why there hasn't been a recall issued perhaps because it involves a new engine? over700k people have the same problem. if thier is something you guys can do i dont think its correct the customers have to pay the dues on an unsafe bad design engine. Thank you for your time
