Stop Sale Issued For 3500 Duramax Diesel Silverado/Sierra HD Trucks – GM-Trucks.com

Stop Sale Issued For 3500 Duramax Diesel Silverado/Sierra HD Trucks – GM-Trucks.com

While the direct reason for the stop-sale isn’t outlined, the vehicles are claimed to experience a “hydro-lock / no start issue”. Hydrolocking is the term used when the cylinder of an engine fills with water, gas, or diesel and prevents a piston from moving. Current assumptions are that there might be some defect allowing fluid to enter the cylinders and therefore preventing starting.

Some dealers with trucks on the lot that fall under this stop sale have outright told customers they will not take delivery. There is no estimate for a fix or a time frame for when the vehicles may be released for sale. Even the bulletin states that the issue is – “incomplete remedy not available”.

This comes at a frustrating time for consumers. Some HD pickup customers have waited upwards of 19-weeks since ordering their new trucks and have yet to take delivery. Some of those waiting will undoubtedly fall into this stop sale. A short-term remedy (for example ordering a new truck) seems unlikely.

One-Third of Ukraine’s Farmland Won’t Be Cultivated or Harvested This Year – Modern Farmer

Agriculture is central to Ukraine’s economy. The nation hosts 42 million hectares of agricultural land, and it is one of the world’s largest wheat exporters. But disrupted by the turbulence of war, the country is facing a deteriorating food production industry, resulting in supply-chain shortages. With a lack of inputs—including fertilizer— needed for successful crop yields, plus labor shortages, Ukraine is struggling with food insecurity.

Weather Update – April 21, 2022

I am glad I brought my rain coat today ☔

Probably won’t need it and it made me extra sweaty this morning, but who knows. Pine Bush hike might be wet. Tomorrow looks nice but again pretty windy. As does the weekend. Still though a fair amount of snow up north. If there wasn’t the snow or the family obligations might be a good weekend to heat out of town, although that wind would probably have made things a lot colder and I’d be worried about sparks from burning shit.
