GM Finally recalling '21-24 6.2L V8's

[TexasSAR]

Mine blew up March 6, 2025. As of yesterday May 15, 2025 it’s still blown up

Wow

That sucks

What year is your truck?

Stupid question... is this just the 6.2L put in trucks or all 6.2L including LT4 based?

2022

Dealer called before lunch and said it’s on the rack and they will begin the recall Monday. It’s for sale!!!

This is just pertaining to the L87 models of the 6.2 engine.

Thanks for the clarification on this! I was like WTF I just put it in last year.

My 2025 has a 9/2024 build date. The engine stamp is 12702630. Last 6 of the VIN is 138442.

I'm curious to see what the dealer response is when I bring it in next month for an oil change.

All about displacement. So many factors play into it. Different scenario, but I had a Ski-doo 900CC Ace snowmobile comparable to the 1200CC in a lot of ways. However the added weight just didn't work for me.

Talked to my service advisor today.

They haven’t received any official notification on my truck. He is expecting them to phase this because they couldn’t possibly manage them all. Tools and parts for the recall are on order

Said it was the largest recall he has seen in 40 years of being in the automotive industry.

this certainly won't help the resale value of trucks with the 6.2l

No it won’t

I bet the class actions will eventually be combined into one. These are all higher end GM vehicles and is going to be painful for GM.

L87 Recall Picoscope Test:

several dealers i have touched based with, are aware of this...but are still waiting for GM to mail YOU, YOUR letter on how to proceed.

mine still wont swap the oil to 0-40, wont look at cylinder head sticker, and will not do the code verification nor the scope test. they claim they DONT KNOW what to do, until GM issues it by date or VIN.

That matches what my dealer is telling me.

I feel like those of us following this know more than they do or they are playing stupid.
