National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened a new safety probe on January 16th, 2025, looking into multiple General Motors brands that span five model years and a total of 877,710 potentially affected vehicles.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said it was opening a preliminary probe into vehicles manufactured by General Motors after receiving reports alleging engine failure.

Owners of the vehicles complained of connecting rod bearing wear, which has led to catastrophic engine damage without any prior symptoms.
