GMC engine problems
Owners have filed 8,341 complaints with NHTSA about the engine on GMC vehicles — 100% of everything reported about the brand, across 100 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the GMC Sierra 1500, worst in 2021.
These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
