Engine cooler line detached from crimp causing engine to drain oil rapidly and engine seized. The oil pressure warning light came on, and the truck was immediately shut down (within 10 seconds). We were put at risk because we tried to coast out of traffic and park it on a shoulder to prevent being struck by oncoming traffic. Truck was towed to dealer where we were told the engine was seized and we would have to pay for a new engine. Digging into this further, GM had put a service bulletin for this exact issue out on this year of truck. (N212326940-01). I brought this up to the dealer and they told me that my specific truck wasn't included in the recall and wouldn't be covered.

I am an owner of the same year, and model GMC Sierra 1500 included in the GM Customer Satisfaction Program N212326940, which is the oil cooler line failure. However, my VIN was not included in the program despite experiencing the exact same failure the program covers. My safety and the safety of others is put at risk because the failure may cause an immediate loss of oil pressure or propulsion while driving. This is a huge safety hazard, since loss of vehicle control may occur. My vehicle has been inspected by a certified GM dealer and they confirmed the oil cooler line has failed and must be replaced. I have not experienced any warning lights, but my vehicle is leaking an excessive amount of oil. The vehicle is no longer safe to drive until repaired.

With 115000 miles on it, I felt a clunk when it went in to gear. I took it to the dealer 3 times to have the mechanic drive it. He said it sounded and felt right. The the transmission blew and I had to have it replaced to the tune of 4800 dollars. 2 weeks after that the engine blew and I had to have that replaces for 17000 dollars. I really like my pickup but this seems a bit excessive. The 5.3 engine isn't good for that year

The service engine light came on while driving on the highway. We took it to a GMC dealership and they scanned to determine a short in the oil pressure sensor.

The warranty company made them tear the engine apart where they found multiple area where the metal was worn down including the gaskets, rings, and cylinders. The warranty company continues to fight us to cover the whole invoice.

Luckily, truck was sitting in idle waiting on my wife and daughter to leave the store so we could go home. Engine began to run rough, and then died. Would not restart. Had this happened just a few moments later while in traffic, it could have been catastrophic for our family.

There is a Service Bulletin on the Engine Oil Cooler line failure. It leaks or becomes detached form the crimp joint. Mine is leaking from the crimp joint and GMC says my VIN is not covered under this bulletin. N192220080 if this is a known issue on these vehicles why am I having to cover the costs for replacing a known faulty part. GMC said I could bring it in and have them perform the repair at my cost. The nearest service department is 100 miles away. I have it at a local mechanic that says it will cost anywhere from $1300 to $1500 to perform the repair.

Friday night coming home. While entering my driveway. The check engine light came on. The engine sounded really bad. Rough idling. Saturday morning. Took it to a mechanic shop. While on my way to the shop, the truck had loss of power. The first mechanic shop told me that the truck was having engine failure. Was not sure at the time but the L 87 is known for having lifters and bearing failure. Monday the truck was taken to the dealership Novak motors. For extended warranty, repair or possible engine replacement. It has been two weeks. Have not heard anything yet. But the timing of the incident was good. Because the engine failed when I was pulling in to my driveway.
