Engine failure requiring engine replacement. I was told it was likely a bearing failure issue. I purchased the vehicle used from grapevine Buick with about 75,000 miles and decided not to purchase an extended warranty because I have always had good life and no engine issue with my previous chevy vehicles. There were no warning engine lights before, when it occurred or after it occurred. When the problem occurred on 12/2/24 I was driving on a road going approximately 50 mph when suddenly I felt a sudden loss of power. I then pulled over into a parking lot and could hear the engine knocking and making a screeching sound. I was over 230 miles from home when this occurred and had to get the vehicle towed back home. I had it towed again to an a shop where they determined the engine needed to be replaced. There was lots of metal shavings found in the oil pain. I was told it was likely a bearing failure issue. As I had no extended warranty and the factory warranty expired at 60,000 miles I had to pay over $12,000 for the engine to be replaced on a vehicle I had just purchased the prior month.
