for something called "engine failure". Glad I don't have one.

More than half a million drivers need to bring their vehicles back to the dealership.
General Motors (GM) is recalling nearly 600,000 US SUVs and trucks due to engine issues, including some of its best-selling models.
The Detroit automaker recalled 2021 through 2024 model year Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Suburban, and Tahoe, GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles with 6.2L V8 gas engines. But the cars have a dangerous defect that has potentially led to multiple collisions.
The company says the connecting rod and crankshaft engine components may have manufacturing defects that can lead to engine damage or failure.
'It was scary as hell,' Gary Johnson, a GMC Sierra driver who experienced engine issues on the highway, told Minnesota-based ABC affiliate KSTP.
He said he was driving at 65 mph when his truck's power abruptly ceased.
'I am going to be honest, I am just beside myself,' he said.
