Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I am writing to express my concern regarding a serious issue with my 2019 Chevy Silverado. Recently, while driving on the highway, I experienced a sudden loss of power. After diagnosing the issue, I was informed that my engine now requires a full replacement. This comes shortly after I had the camshaft replaced. My truck has only 80,000+ miles on it, which I believe is well below what should be expected for such a major failure. I have maintained the vehicle according to recommended service schedules and was surprised by this issue. Chevy has quoted me approximately $15,000 for the engine replacement, which is an extraordinary expense given the mileage and service history of the vehicle. I am seeking assistance in resolving this matter, as I believe this type of failure should not occur under normal conditions with such low mileage. Please let me know what steps can be taken or if there is any warranty or goodwill support available. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
I was passing a line of vehicles when a semi started over into my lane. I hit the gas, to avoid being hit by the truck. When I did warning light on my vehicle appeared on the display. I lost speed and immediately heard a loud knocking from the engine. I was on an open 4 lane highway and knew there was a dealer close by. I drove to the dealership, I left the vehicle running so they could hear it. The service tech told me they had seen "several" vehicles in with the same problem with the 5.3L . I left the vehicle there and was given a loaner. They told me the lifter had gone bad when I sped up quickly, and the camshaft was damaged. Further research by me has discovered a lot of vehicles have this same issue due to the active fuel management system. I chose not to pay Chevrolet $7000 to fix the engine, and currently have it in a private shop being repaired. A less experienced driver may have slammed on the brakes or swerved and caused a major accident. My vehicle did slow down on its own, but I was able to keep control and safely maneuver to the right lane.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
GM 5.3 Liter V8 engines are known to have lifters lock up and bend push rods or destroy the camshaft resulting in engine replacement or rebuild. GM's fix is to replace the badly designed lifters with the exact same ones hoping that they will last past the warranty period thereby putting the entire cost of replacement on the owners. GM is well aware of the lifter issue but denies any responsibility. A simple google of 5.3 lifter failure will show thousands of complaints and experiences from various auto boards/pages. My Lifters went out while doing 75mph on the highways resulting in immediate slowdown with cars having to swerve to avoid hitting me while i pulled over to the side.

GM's fix is to replace the badly designed lifters with the exact same ones hoping that they will last past the warranty period thereby putting the entire cost of replacement on the owners. GM is well aware of the lifter issue but denies any responsibility. A simple google of 5.3 lifter failure will show thousands of complaints and experiences from various auto boards/pages. My Lifters went out while doing 75mph on the highways resulting in immediate slowdown with cars having to swerve to avoid hitting me while i pulled over to the side.
Additional Notes:
