Upon acceleration the engine began to sputter with a clanking noise. After turning around to pull back into my drive way the engine began to work properly. I had the vehicle towed to Master GMC Augusta,GA. After the car was at the dealership for several days, I was told the issues could not be duplicated and there were no error codes. While returning home from the dealership the car began to sputter and decelerate at this time multiple lights flashed on and off on the dash including the check engine light. As I pulled to the side of the interstate the car once again corrected itself and all lights went out. I reached out to the dealership again. The car was returned to Master GMC again. This time I was notified the engine had failed due to metal shards in the engine. Since this vehicle had only 4988 miles at the time, and I had a 2021 Suburban prior with lifter failures, I was hesitate to keep this vehicle. I did trade the 2023 Yukon XL Denali at the time of engine failure.
