ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
From the time my vehicle had 30,000 miles on the engine, the engine light would come on and stay on with no apparent reason. I would take my car to my local Chevrolet dealer each time (by this time the light had gone out) and they could not find a problem. One technician told me that it sounded like a lifter problem that they were experiencing with these model vehicles. This happened approximately 8 to 10 times before the lifter failed. In January 2025, while driving on the Interstate Highway I experienced a sudden engine vibration and immediate 50% loss of power. Upon returning home, I took my truck to my local Chevrolet dealer where I purchased my vehicle. Upon inspection, I was told that it was apparent that a hydraulic lifter had failed. I left my vehicle at the dealership for the repair of the failed lifter which cost me $4,800. Two months later, I experienced the same problem with the engine, more violently vibrating. I again took my vehicle to the dealership and they confirmed another lifter had failed and took it in for repair under warranty from the prior lifter repair. I had again experienced more than 50% engine loss and had to get off of the interstate and travel on a side road because I could not maintain a speed over 45 to 50 mph. They repaired the same failed lifter bank that they had repaired the first time. Now, I am holding my breath, just waiting for the lifters on the other bank to fail for me to have to put in another $4,800-$5,000. I believe that this is an engine flaw that Chevrolet knows about. They have done nothing to fix this issue and have left it on the backs of the customer. Chevrolet needs to be accountable for these types of problems!

Took it to the dealership in Andrews Tx, could not duplicate misfire but saw over 600 misfires on a single cylinder, they said it was fuel pump failure. Replaced fuel pump. After a month misfiring started again. October of 2024 took it to dealership in San Angelo Tx, they were able to duplicate misfire, lifter failure. Replaced lifters and cam as it was beat up. One month after repair, vehicle started shuddering. Took it back to San Angelo service center, transmission issue, torque converter needs to be replaced.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
When I would put the truck in park and proceed to turn it off, the computer would tell me the truck was not in park. I was told at the dealership that the transmission was in park, though the computer wasn't communicating correctly. Not only does it pose a risk of draining the battery, it is a safety issue. If I were to park on a hill, the only confirmation that my truck is in park is what's said on my dash.
Corrective Action:
When I would put the truck in park and proceed to turn it off, the computer would tell me the truck was not in park. I was told at the dealership that the transmission was in park, though the computer wasn't communicating correctly. Not only does it pose a risk of draining the battery, it is a safety issue. If I were to park on a hill, the only confirmation that my truck is in park is what's said on my dash.

Defect Description:
SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
When the truck was less than 2years and less than 20,000 miles old it developed a clunking noise in the rear suspension. Sounds like 2 heavy pieces of metal softly being knocked together. The dealership inspected it and replaced both rear shocks. The noise was still there. The dealership replaced the left leaf spring assembly. This temporarily eliminated the noise. The noise came back at just under 3 years and 30,000 miles. The dealership inspected, but couldn't find the source of the problem. The noise has only worsened since then, and at a recent visit to the dealership, they could clearly hear the problem. I was told that it is the result of worn cushions between the leaf springs. I'm concerned that the truck may be unsafe. I've been contacted by GM, and at this time they are looking into how to fix it, and who should be responsible for the repair. I can't imagine that mine is the only 2020 Silverado with this problem, and think there must be other reports of a similar nature.
