2022 6.2 L Scoring cylinder piston

[ZR2 silverado]

50200 miles
On cold start hearing loud ticking noise and when warm up slight noise still. Went to dealer (still under warranty 60000 miles ) and they confirmed noise in and tore apart Moter to find 3 soring piston walls on the left side and small metal fragments on cylinders. What next now waiting on GM to decided next step > Sucks to be me, hopefully they fix it problem.
Just a FYI

Time for a new motor, under warranty.

Sounds like another bearing failure.

Awesome, you get a brand new motor! Should be good for 120k now!

Thank you for all the support, hoping all goes well in the coming week and will keep you'll updated on process. I doubt Gm will give me another 60000-mile warranty on a new motor if this what they decide to do, but i will be asking if this is the case.
Wish me luck

When I had the motor replaced under warranty because of dropped lifters on my 2015 Silverado, I was given a 1 year warranty on the motor replacement in addition to the current warranty that I had. Good luck with the repairs.

Update
Also, a bent push rod which caused the souring of the piston ,still a waiting on Gm to suggest repairs

UPDATE

Waiting on a GM Teck to come to dealership now and inspect and discuss the next steps, (as they told me metaphorical "ball"is in their court) after they now set pictures of souring cylinder and sending service history. Bought used but had a car fax showing all service done at GM dealership on the oil changes by previous owner which were all in good order and well maintained) now going on week 3

You get a new motor, you have a damn near new truck! There's some upside here!

This may be why it's taking GM so long...They have to send out an engineer to properly diagnose the failure. Bent push rods don't cause cylinder wall scoring. Inadequate lubrication/foreign objects/debris causes scoring. Bent push rods are caused by other things (lifter sticking, over-revving, valve slicking, ). Without looking at it, I am guessing some sort of valve train failure that caused debris to ender the cylinder which caused the scoring...Or you coincidentally had two separate failures at the same time. Sounds to me like you are a customer with a service center that doesn't have a good diag tech and can't provide an accurate cause of failure.

Not the same motor or mileage, but here's another horror story.

594 Miles In My 2024 Silverado Is Back At The Dealership. The Truck Will Never Be The Same And I Could Care Less About The Warranty

After just 594 miles, George's brand-new 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 faced a shocking engine failure—what happened next will leave you frustrated.
