Single owner of 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTZ with 6.2, experienced “low oil pressure” alarm while driving home and pulled over immediately and shut off vehicle. I had the vehicle towed to the dealer and they said the engine was seized and want to replace the GM long block, quoted at $9,500 for the job to include labor. I began to notice what I perceive to be as lifter noise a week prior, nothing overt but I had to listen very closely to make it out.
When I followed up with the dealer the guy said that they need to tear the engine down to be sure but they are thinking that maybe there was a “crank failure”. I’d say it would be hard to diagnose anything without having access to the rotating assembly but wanted to see thoughts on here.
Mainly, I’m 8,000 outside of the 100,000 manufacturer powertrain warranty and I feel like I’m going to get hosed on this from big GM. I’m going to start working up the chain with my complaint but have a feeling this will go nowhere. Anyone have any insight to this engine situation or any recommendations on how to best proceed to get GM to provide compensation?
