The truck ran for about 20 additional minutes when it lost power and shut off. Mileage was at a little over 16,000 miles. No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. I was fortunate to be pulling into a parking lot when it shut down, GMC roadside assistance had my truck towed to a GMC dealer where it was determined the engine was blown. They replaced the engine.
