While traveling northbound on Interstate 77 in West Virginia in my 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 High Country with the 6.2L L87 engine, I was climbing a hill under power in the left lane when the truck suddenly began losing power, speed, and RPMs. As I attempted to change lanes to escape traffic, the engine began making a severe knocking noise.

Follow-up to NHTSA complaint #11659972. My 2024 Silverado ZR2's 6.2L engine was replaced in May 2025 under recall 25V-274.

The truck is unsafe to drive; an engine failure at highway speed could kill the driver, passengers and others. Service scheduled at Paramus Chevrolet for 12/10/2025.
