The dealer found that the engine rod bearings failed and replaced them along with the engine block, but the same problem returned about five months later. The second time, they diagnosed an exhaust manifold leak and replaced it, but the issue happened again just two months after that repair. This problem started around 103,000 miles on your vehicle.

Your engine is consuming oil at an unusually high rate—about 1 quart every 700 miles. Even though your truck has only 41,000 miles on it, this level of oil consumption suggests an internal problem like worn piston rings, valve seals, or a gasket leak. A mechanic will need to inspect the engine to find the source and determine if internal repairs are needed.

Your engine's oil cooler line is leaking, which means oil may be escaping from the connection that cools your engine oil. You may notice oil spots under your vehicle or a drop in your oil level if the leak isn't addressed. This should be inspected and repaired soon to prevent engine damage from low oil levels. The fix will likely involve replacing the leaking oil cooler line or tightening the connection.

My husband, [XXX] son, my [XXX] mother-in-law, and I were traveling on the expressway at approximately 70 miles per hour in our 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with the 5.3L engine when the dashboard suddenly lit up with warning lights and alarms. My husband looked in the rear-view mirror and saw a large amount of smoke coming from the truck. We immediately had to cross two lanes of heavy traffic to reach the shoulder and get off the roadway safely. When I opened my door, I could see that engine oil was pouring from the truck and running down the expressway. We were stranded on the side of the expressway for over an hour before my brother was able to come pick us up. The tow truck company advised that it would take several hours before they could arrive. During that time, vehicles continued traveling at highway speeds and did not slow down despite our disabled truck being on the shoulder. The truck was shaking from the wind and force of cars and trucks passing by at high speeds. This created an extremely dangerous situation, particularly with our [XXX] child and my elderly mother-in-law in the vehicle. The truck was eventually towed to a local repair shop, where the mechanic determined that the engine oil cooler line had broken at the crimp, causing a significant oil leak. The repair required replacement of the oil cooler lines and related components at a cost of $2,109.92. Had we continued driving even briefly, the engine likely could have been severely damaged or destroyed due to the rapid loss of oil. This appears to match the known issue described in GM Customer Satisfaction Program N212326940 regarding oil cooler lines detaching from the crimp on 2019 Chevrolet Silverado trucks.

Incident Description: While driving at highway speeds, the oil cooling lines on my vehicle suffered a catastrophic failure, resulting in a total loss of engine oil within seconds. To ensure my safety and avoid being stranded in high-speed traffic, I proceeded less than a quarter-mile to reach the nearest exit. During the cooling process after the vehicle was stopped, the engine seized due to extreme thermal damage caused by the sudden lack of lubrication. Safety Risk: The sudden and total loss of engine oil at highway speeds presents a significant safety hazard. It creates an immediate risk of sudden engine stall or seizure while in traffic, which could lead to a high-speed collision. Furthermore, a high-volume oil leak onto hot engine components represents a severe fire risk. Technical Evidence & Manufacturer Response: There are existing Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) for this specific vehicle model that explicitly identify these oil cooling lines as a known failure point. These TSBs state that failure to replace these lines can lead to the engine becoming non-functional. Despite this documented manufacturing defect and the clear safety implications of a sudden engine failure on a highway, Chevrolet has refused to provide a remedy, insisting that the engine replacement be paid for out-of-pocket. Requested Action: I am requesting that the NHTSA investigate this known defect for a potential safety recall, as the failure of these lines constitutes a predictable and dangerous loss of vehicle power and potential fire hazard.

Rupture of Oil Cooler Lines. NHTSA previously completed a safety field investigation. GM issued a bulletin to their dealerships (only). Has both safety and environmental impacts. Vehicle suddenly losses oil pressure and provides a warning light to turn engine off. This will strand the driver wherever and whenever it should occur. I have spoken with GM, they are aware of the problem, but will not recall for the problem. This scenario also exposes the environment to the sudden loss of oil to the ground and surrounding area.

I was driving my 2019 Chevy Silverado and the low oil pressure light came on. I pulled over to find that my truck was leaking oil. I called a tow truck and had the tow truck take me to location that I bought the truck (25 miles away). While waiting for the tow truck I did research about what could be happening. While doing my research I found this recall by Chevy: [XXX] My truck was looked at and I was called the next day and informed that the issue was "oil cooler line crimps coming apart and leaking". To my dismay I was informed that my VIN was not part of this recall. I find this to be either very ironic or the recall needs to be expanded to include additional 2019 Chevy Silverado's. I have an email from the service manager; Dereck West, at Victory Chevy Milan Michigan, stating that the diagnosis was as follows: "inspected to find oil cooler line crimps coming apart and leaking. replaced oil cooler line assembly". Again, this seems to match the recall perfectly. I was advised by Chevy to file a complaint and retain all records related to this incident. I have tried contacting GM for additional support. I have been unsuccessful with getting any responses from GM customer support. Upon additional research I found many forums that describe the exact same issue that I have described above. Customers having to pay for an issue that matches identically to a recall because their VIN is not part of the recall. It is my opinion that this recall should be expanded to include additional VIN's for 2019 Chevy Silverado's. I am more than willing to provide any additional information that might be needed. I appreciate your time in advance and look forward to hearing from you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My truck recently started to leak oil onto my driveway so I took it to a local dealership to get it looked at. The service engineers diagnosed the problem as the Engine Oil Cooler line is detaching from the crimp causing oil to leak out. They also told me that there was a recall, see PDF attached, (#N212329640-01) that is associated with this problem. However, it only applies to my vehicle if it was manufactured in Canada and Alaska. My vehicle, I was told, was manufactured in Mexico. I brought it to the dealership and they told me this doesn't apply to my vehicles simply because of where my vehicle was manufactured. This is troubling information as the SAME issue that was part of a national recall is the SAME problem that is happening with my truck and could cause a major safety risk while driving, yet it is not part of the recall based off where it was manufactured. Specifically, the vehicle could be involved with "loss of propulsion" as stated in the original recall. This is too coincidental of an occurrence to simply ignore it which is why I wanted to file a complaint.

The oil cooler line on this vehicle is faulty- they Crimp that crimps the hose to the metal parts breaks off. This is common in this vehicle (after it happened to me, I started to read on this and thousands of customers have had this issue). My oil exited my vehicle and upon replacing the part on my own (after towing, parts and labor cost), the engine would not crank.
