Having a truck you don’t feel you can trust is like having a woman you can’t trust. Lots of emotions there.
That’s why you need a Ford
@@michaelfoucht8830 ram ... ford before 2000 yes
Agreed!!
Constantly looking at the instrument cluster, turning down the radio to randomly listen to it. Yeah I’ve been there.
@@quagmiredavis4117 Nah, Rams rust out too quick. Well, at least ours have.
Any truck that drops an engine at 5k miles isnt a great truck by any definition
“Little issues” the freaking engine went out on a 5k mile truck. 😂
🤯
Compared to an entire engine the issues he had were little , dohh
@@chowhound33ify Idk, I've seen lifters breaking absolutely fuck up engines before. Wack shit
I have a 2023 5.3 and it happened to me at 5.1K miles
My hat is off to you since you're being so calm about this. I'd be enraged! These trucks cost entirely too much to have such an issue inside 10K miles. Unacceptable!
Let alone inside 100 miles like mine has.
@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO this is upsetting. I was thinking about buying one of these..
My neighbor got 2 big Sierra Denalis BRAND NEW, and BOTH wound up in the shop a week later with clogged, collapsing cats. Gotta love it.
Fun fact a 2021 Silverado Trail Boss with 6.2 liter was 49,400 dollars NOW 2023 70k for same truck,,,my all new 2023 Colorado Trail Boss was 42,200,,,,
@@jimmycline4778 Yeah, prices are nuts. Hope that Colorado works out for ya
Baby Squat is laughing like an evil villain right now!!!
No matter how happy you are you got it back it’s kinda sad Chevy sells their customers trucks that aren’t even reliable in the first 6k miles
General Motors is cranking out hundreds of thousands of these vehicles per year. Of course they are going to be some that are problematic that's why they are under a 3-year 36,000 mile warranty. Ish happens and sometimes it's no one's fault
Ford has the same issues and every other car companies. At this point it is so common.
@@leir2005 yea its the manufactures fault
@@ello34 shit happens. every brand has failures.
@@leir2005 It's GM's fault . This problem is more than 10 years old.
This war one of the best Ford, Dodge or any other truck brand commercial I’ve seen in a while.
This makes me happy for keeping my 09 paid off Silverado ⭐️
I have an 09 and its not been any trouble for me yet. 134k miles
@@justinsmyth3211 09 with 145k. No troubles and still looks nice.
@@Calbear707trees nice man. I love mine, plenty of power and it's still in pretty good shape too.
07 Tahoe here with 170K. Wrapping it this weekend, then taking it to my dealer for a transmission refresh. Babygirl is getting sluggish after all these years but my #2 right behind my '15 Sierra with 77k. My '98 Sierra is still rowdy as heck, Just can't deal with a thirsty 5.7! Lol
No telling how much metal debris went through that motor, I suspect just enough not to smoke. You'll definitely know in 40,000 miles.
I was thinking the same thing
Exactly!!
When the pin brakes inside the lifter there is no debris of any kind! Don't have to worry about That!
@@80gritkelly20 except all the flakes that comes off of it when it breaks.
@@Vinson351 I have made these repairs, it's just a clean break, small pin.
No debris what so ever!
Thanks for the update. I think you made the right choice. I got mine like a week after you and already had it in for a different warranty issue. I still love mine and there are no plans to get rid of it.
Well buddy , you just made me not want to get one in the end. I’ll just stick to what I have and wait another 4 years
You sound like a lifetime movie with an abused woman trying to convince yourself that he didn’t mean to hit you!!!
Well in the trucks defense he gets into the throttle unnecessarily. Also those tires...
shit the money he spent on that thing yeah i would be too
This dude don't look confident in that truck anymore lol
I know the feeling, but post accident, car looked the same, etc.. but I can't name it, but the feeling of trust was gone. I know the engine got hit, what happens miles down the road when you're engine was pushed???
@@jasoncentore1830 yep i can't blame him, i think most of us would feel the same. i wouldn't be able to trust this vehicle anymore.
right...lol I wouldnt trust it either.
Glad it worked out. Working on transferring my 2016 into a “Stormtrooper”.
This is why we have warranty especially times now when things are being rushed out due to short supply. As professional service advisor of over 5 years that was a great service write up and sounds like a dealership to stick with and an advisor to stick with good luck with the new truck gm vehicles are amazing and when it get out of warranty it’s time to do cam solid lifters and never have issues cheers !
Thankfully enuff, I bought a 2019, 5.3 new. It now has 6252 miles with no issues. Basically a weekend vehicle. I enjoy this truck tremendously.
Well you better hope you don’t have the same problem!
Damn I bout my 21 TRD pro tundra 6 months ago with 1 mile on it and just rolled over 12k lol
Glad you’re keeping it. I’ve got a 19 Trail Boss since new and no issues with the 5.3. Also the 5.3 in my 2003 Z71 is over 203 k and still running strong! Keep the vids coming!
Those trucks were long before the new post GM bail out products
Glad your keeping the truck and hope it’s the last issue. 4 day turnaround is pretty legit. Mine took almost 15 but it was right after the huge Texas freeze and they had a punch of issues with the diesel trucks. Keep up the awesome content!
Overall, glad to see that you got it back and running perfectly. Also glad to see you are confident enough that you will continue to drive it.
I was a little disappointed to see how it was delivered to you be the technician, especially if he was supposed to be a master technician.
Wow, I'm impressed how quickly they did all that work and turned it back to you.
Eh, its not that big of a job considering all the hardware is new and easy to come off. I had to do head gaskets and lifters on my old 5.3 and even with running to the parts store multiple times and having bolts break, It took me a day.
25k miles with my 6.2 high country and love it. No problems so far. Glad your still bow tie owner.
What year ?
@@letsgobrandon5622 2019
It’ll be back in in a few months to replace the other side
Yup
My lifter went at 39k now at 90k all good
Glad you got it back... I hope I don't have any issues with my 2020 5.3 just hit 9,000 miles.
This documentation explains crystal clear why trade in value will be a horrible. After seeing this who would buy into these nightmares?
Glad to hear they were able to get it taken care of and it was an easy fix!
Almost 2k miles on my 2021 Trail Boss and so far so good. Loving it so far!
How’s it running now? I’m about to pick up my new one here in a week or so
@@blaiseweimer3643 just got my first service done at 5k this week. No issues so far!
Andrew do you have the 5.3 or 6.2?
@@blaiseweimer3643 I have the 5.3
I honestly didn’t want the 6.2. Couldn’t justify the price difference and the fact it’s best to run 91 in it which is stupid expensive now
Just crossed over 6k on my 21 silverado. So far so good
It’s pretty bad when the second gen cyl deactivation still doesn’t work and is still an issue
I've got a 19 tb custom, has the older 5.3 and 6 speed, been fine other than a broken wire in the harness, dealer knew about the issue , had it repaired and modified to remedy future issues in a couple hours. Love my truck, 30k miles and counting.
Yep same exact as mine (5.3) left side lifters replaced and bent rod... good news just took it on 600 mile round trip and zero issues. Also side note when I signed my paperwork I saw the dealer cost for the work was $2000.
Glad you recommended the AFM disabler by Range, bought one for my 2017 and the difference is night and day
I just bought a 2017, what is a AFM disabler?
@@tonijudd4254 AFM is active fuel management. It shuts down 4 of the cylinders to save on fuel but it’s terrible for your engine. A lot of people disable AFM to prolong the life of their engine and keep their V8 running on all 8 cylinders. It’s $200 but I highly recommend it.
@@brentlockerby9355 does it disable the auto stop/start too? I hate that. I’m so used to pushing that button to turn it off now
Glad to see the Chevy will be sticking around, also props to Chevy for not asking questions and getting you fixed up right
It doesn’t matter what it is there will be issues with it. There are pros and cons with every manufacturer and with the way vehicles are built now it seems that will be an issue for a long time but glad she’s up and running again man
I sincerely hope things work out with your truck. I have a 2019 LT Z71 and have had no issues at 20 k miles. Granted, my truck is stock and will continue to be stock.
I have 2018 LT Z71 34k miles and no problems so far. Mine is stock too.
2019 LT 5.3 55,000 miles no problems. Pulsar lt installed at 5,000 miles to disable dfm.
He seems like hes in denial and very passive .
Yea love to see it still stay around
I live near Delillo Chevrolet in Huntington Beach CA. I don’t use them for service as I am a mechanic. Every time I go there for parts, I see these newer trucks and SUVs in the shop for lifter failure. The issue does get addressed but the poor customers are without transportation for weeks. You were lucky you got a loaner vehicle. Thanks for the great video.
I got a buddy who's a disabled vet that just bought a 2021 Trail Boss. We were testing it out in the Nevada desert and started hearing a knocking sound in the engine. He was really trying to sell me on his truck, but after his experience and seeing yours I'm getting cold feet.
I like it. I just will probably never own one. Too much technology can go wrong and the simplest fix can cost hundreds because they are harder to work on. Glad to see they came through for you. Love your collection. (Especially Earl 😊)
I have a LT Trail Boss, and I haven't had any issues. You pretty much roll the dice anytime you buy a new vehicle.
Get you a Tundra, that shit'll last forever on stock everything! Mine has, and it turns 22 this month! Love that damn truck to the end of the earth😁😁😁😁😁
Nice you got it fixed quick and can put this behind you.
This is scary. Sure they look great, they're powerful and have all the fancy technology inside, but a critical engine failure at only 3K miles is unacceptable. I'm afraid this is just the beginning of what owners of these trucks are going to have to deal with throughout their ownership. Time and additional mileage will be the true jury on the overall quality of these vehicles.
I test drove a new SILVERADO IN 2018. Had 6 miles on it. Things went sour about 2 miles into the test drive. Dummy me test drove another & I bought it. It has been flawless. Zero defects and no recalls. Best truck I've ever had. Guess you could say QC is a bit spotty. I did install 2 oil catch cans and a Ranger AFM disable.
glad to see the chevy is staying. I just picked up a 2020 6.2 ltz. looking foward to see what all you do with the truck
How is it doing dude ?
I'm a ford guy but they all have issues at times. Thank your government for for the fuel mileage and emissions standards that require all these costly and complicated engine systems the manufacturers have to add on.
Their quality control is trash, that has nothing to do with regulations or emissions. It's 2021 the manufacturer should be able to do dependable and complicated. I'm looking for a vehicle now and American brands continue to seem unreliable.
There's nothing wrong with gov't regulations. We'd be living in a total dystopia if corporations could do whatever they wanted. As it is, they already own the gov't so the least they can do is comply with a few regs that make the environment a little cleaner. Get upset about the right things!
@@dlg5485 But they need to give the manufacturer's time for the new designs and technology to be tested or they end up putting stop gap unproven engineering out just to meet gov. deadlines.
@@kman0146 Corporations will never willingly spend money that doesn't come right back to their bottom line...it's called greed and their shareholders demand never ending profit growth. In the face of that kind of insatiable greed, regulations are absolutely essential. These companies aren't hurting are they? Of course not, they're doing just fine, even with all the oppressive regulations. The bottom line is that motor vehicles have never been better, so there is absolutely no reason to whine about any of this.
@@dlg5485 FYI - "Green" is the new RED. ;I
Yup, I had. 2016 Z71 LTZ 6.2 with the eight speed trans. It did the same thing at 9k. I kept it for another 20k miles. The engine never gave me any more problems but it was in the shop three time for the trans. I’m Ford super duty all the way now.
Same happened to me on my 20’ Silverado, RST, 5.3 but at 8.8k miles. I got somewhat interrogated by service advisor as to wether or not I had done any authorized upgrades or maintenance on it. Luckily I had not. They even questioned why I did not report a check engine light that had previously turned on (it was on for less than 5 minutes). In the end, everything was fully covered, thank god.
Unload that thing, before you blowup the CARFAX reports with repairs. Time to make lemonade!
Forealz tbh if not he’s guna have to just keep that truck forever hope nothing happens after the warranty but at that point didn’t even make past 5k miles I wouldn’t trust it to make past 100k miles tbh best to part ways. At this point the trucks value has severely diminished once those repairs show on the carfax
The only thing on a carfax that truly affects resale value is damage.. as long as it comes up no accidents that’s all a dealer really cares about when trading in.
@@DR_Bloom86 That is probably true for the dealer purchasing the truck. They want a clear title, low mileage, accident free (although not a deal breaker for minor things) and clean looking. As a buyer I’m definitely looking at the CARFAX for every record, especially major repairs. The truck in question had one cylinder side repaired as a precaution to fixing one bad cylinder. Why didn’t they do both sides, if this is a known production problem? If there is a batch of bad parts, why would you guess at what will last or fail next? I would not have any confidence for long term ownership of a truck like that. The only thing for sure, is more than likely it is going to fail, leave you or your family stranded, and be several thousand dollars to fix, if it makes it past the warranty. No informed buyer wants some one else’s lemon truck.
@@pauldiesel4582 Trust me I dont disagree with anything you are saying.. this same thing happened to my 2021 Silverado last month with 3500 miles they only did lifters on one side as well. Mine is a lease so that takes care of my worry at least. As far as future buyers when I sold cars I would show them the car fax on a used car and that it was accident free they would look at it for less than a minute and move on. Most buyers are not informed enough to really know what they are looking at or care enough to do so.
@@DR_Bloom86 I agree too. Most people are looking at superficial things and not to the long term. I keep nearly every vehicle I have owned 200K+. For many people that is way too long. What is not clear is what is causing the engine to fail ?We’re the parts made incorrectly and they need the properly made parts now installed? I have not heard yet. You are at least lucky it is a leased truck. I have had 3 Chevy trucks go nearly 300K for all of them. What’s up with these new trucks?
Really glad you got it fixed quickly and with no problems from the dealership. Hope it treats you well from here on out.
I see what you mean about emotion. I bought my first chevy three years ago used. I bought a colorado LT 4×4 that I love. Always had fords and dealers were always rude. I am 70 and had my ups and downs with my trucks. Problem is we get too attached like their family members. Even at 70 I still have the sickness. I hope your beautiful truck is now fixed. BEST OF LUCK !!! STAY SAFE &WELL FRANKIE LONG ISLAND. P.S. Remember a good truck is like a good women- cost you money & takes you for a ride
Man, that truck looks great sitting in the field. Hope you have better luck with her! That's the exact color/trim I would get if I bought a Silverado.
People act like this shit doesn't happen with other brands, drove two new ford f150s back home for the company I work for and one of the transmissions went out literally 15 miles later. I worked on a Mack truck with 5000 miles on it and it needed a new cam, factory defects happen.
Brand loyalty is a bitch. Some are even blinded by it.
Hopefully it works out for ya , but I was Chevy my whole life and went threw problems like this and others on all of them ( ordered new ) and I just couldn’t take it anymore. Constantly a issue with something . Gm lost me for life and now we have several tundra and I’ve never been happier.
Glad your new truck is back to running.
It is a machine and machines break once in a while.
Gorgeous truck bro
i'm glad it worked out for you, bro! i'm having the same problem and i hope they fix my trailboss. i pray i get great results as well.
🤔 I got a 2020 Silverado high country 5.3 with 17200miles and not one issue 🤷🏻♂️ been flawless for me
U jusr jinxed urself
When it hits 300,000 then you can say it’s flawless
@@johnjpa808 300,000 miles 😳 hell no 🤣 I’ll be trading it in way b4 60k...I haven’t experienced anything yet but now my 2016 high country that I bought new at the time I had a lot of bull shit with that one
I had two injectors suddenly go out at 18k miles on my 2018. Never had a problem before and haven’t since. It’s frustrating because these are parts failures and there isn’t anything you can do to prevent them.
I would hope not with only 17k miles.
I’m telling you man, you should’ve rev’d the sh*t out of it.😐 just imagine how safer/comfortable you’d feel with a new engine.. remember the guy who got his engine replaced, now he’s headed towards 100k miles right? Engine is defected, something else will break, it’s bound to happen.
Nowadays they'll probably be able to check the logs and see what you did.
@@oceanwaves83 yep we sure can see what all the engine data was during a failure the ecm stores it and can’t be deleted by simply clearing the dtcs with a generic scan tool
@@jaydenbankes8126 I figured. 2 wrongs don't make a right either. Better to be honest. I'd likely trade it in. If they claim to have absolutely "fixed" it, they should be all for it.
If it was me I'd be looking nationwide for a non-denali 2013 6.2L/6L90e - Much cheaper, proven reliability, great power potential.
@@oceanwaves83 why non Denali? Just for a better price?
@@Perkuhlerk absolutely. And i like the SLE front end over the Denali.
I also grew up driving on the beach and prefer full-on 4wd as an option as opposed to all time awd. Although i do like that BW transfer case that came on those Denali's.
Thank you for the informative video. I just bought a 2022 limited Silverado with the 6.2. I hope this doesn’t happen to mine. But thanks for the information regarding this problem with the engines. Thanks again!
That’s a pretty fast fix! My 2021 GMC Sierra 5.3 has been at the dealer since May 10th! They tell me they’re waiting on parts! Glad your going to keep it!
5.3 parts are in more demand vs the 6.2. Per GM parts counter. I had to wait about 8 days for my lifters/vlom and head gaskets
This has happen to me twice! Tapping again! The integrity of the truck is gone! It will knock again! I’m on a buy back from Cali ! Good Luck!
How did you manage the buy-back? I have a new 2020 RST 6.2L Z71 all options available, and less than 100 miles on it. It has never run right. The engine dies, sounds like a bad rod or lifter (like the engine is misfiring also). The engine dies, even at times after it's warmed up. Squealing noises can be heard (like a belt or pully /alternator motor/ is rusty/ or needs lubrication. I have not even driven this truck except once, to pick it up as a delivery from a dealership in Houston, TX. Not looking forward to dealing with getting it repaired. The local dealership is an hour+ away. Thanks for reading/ replying. -John

@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO Hang in there John ! Sorry for your troubles!
We had a 2019 5.3 liter Silverado Trail Boss LT for 1.5 years and sold that piece of junk when used car prices spiked mid 2020. We were on our 3rd rear sliding window from there being water leaking into the cabin during car wash and rain storms, also a very common issue with the new 2019+ body style trucks. My suggestion would be to get rid of the truck while its "fixed".
I'm glad I didn't buy 2019. I bought a 2018 when they 2019s were out and they were actually about to bring in some 2020s. I got a really good deal on it. The thing else I like it it was the end of a production run so I hope that despite all the other issues, that one was good. So far it's been solid
My 2014 gave me so many issues went with a 17 no different i cant never trust chevy again
Loll talk about being over dramatic, "my window leaked water, traded that pos in" 🤡 my 2013 z71 was a fuckkng piece
@@boostedbavarian overly dramatic? Its a brand new truck! There shouldn't be any issues. Something like that shouldn't even be an issue.
Have a 22 and sliding rear window. All has been 100% besides the flapper on exhaust broke
I have a 2021 high country , love it. Fully loaded with awesome power in the 6.2.
My 13 silverado has been solid. Over 100,000 miles of near zero issues. I did have the afm shut off. But I have a couple of buddies with the new ones like yours having or had similar issues. I'll just keep my older paid for model.
Your service report is almost identical to the work I had done on my 2021 Silverado LT at 13,500 miles. The dealership kept it for almost 5 days to complete the repairs.
I have the exact same truck and my 2021 trail boss bent a rod at 12k miles.. took two weeks to get it back
Did they replace both sides
I have the same truck it’s a beast!
I have a 2009 Silverado 5.3 and I have the Range plugged in to keep it in V8 mode all the time. I don't want any of the lifter problems that are common with these engines. I have 115,000 miles on the truck now and it seems to run good. I hear it is best to change the oil every 3 - 5,000 miles instead of using the percentage oil life remaining indicator. I change mine every 5,000 miles. Good looking truck, I hope it lasts you a long time.
I also had a lifter failure at 5,200 miles. It was repaired and It's been running fine so far. 8,800 on it now. 5.3L
Did you remove the JLT catch can, CAI, and the Range before you brought it in?
When you have total engine fail on a Work Horse, that's a deadly mix.
Imagine Hauling or towing heavy and the engine goes on the freeway.
Just happened to me yesterday but I have. 1999 f150 5.4 that just locked up in middle a 2 hour drive with a Chevy motor in the bed and it blew up
@@colbybailey5088 sorry to hear about your luck but according to this thread your issues are obviously from the Chevy power plant in the bed of your truck…either the terrible GM manufacturing leeched into your 5.4 Triton or your blue oval couldn’t handle the awesomeness of an LS/LT. So many ignorant fanboy comments make this mildly entertaining. Good luck on getting your rig back on the road.
@@colbybailey5088 um, huge difference with a 1999 and a 2021....not even close to the same.
Glad you stuck with it. Watching you continue to rip with it will answer a lot of “what if?s” had you not.
I have a 2019 GMC Sierra elevation first year of the new generation with the 5.3 when switched from active to dynamic fuel management and have over 38,000 miles or 60,000 km on it and haven't had a single problem or issue with it. Engine feels solid and has plenty of power, transmission shifts smooth, I must have got a truck that was built on a good day. I have owned 4 GMC Sierra trucks in the past 15 years, my first one was a 92 pre-owned with a 5.7 which had over 400,000 km and still running good, my second was a 2009 GMC Sierra 2500 pre-owned with the 6.0 which was a good dependable truck, my third was a 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 new with the 6.0 again was a great tough reliable truck and of course the 2019 1500 new I have now. For me I never had any major issues with any of them, keeps me sticking with the same brand.
hopefully the lobe on the camshaft wasnt messed up too
Glad to see the Silverado again!!!😉👍
You’re 100% right. The mods you made would not cause the failure you experienced. The damage you described is 100% manufacturers defect. The lifter failure could surly be traced back to the AFM. I would definitely by the AFM disabler device. Glad it worked out for you. Recall is a word any big automaker will avoid at all cost. But they, GM, needs to accept the fact that AFM is an epic failure.
Beautiful truck, glad to see you keeping it
I find it amazing that this is such a problem and people continue to buy them and wats worst is the putting the same crap lifters back in so wat have they really fixed I just can’t imagine buying a new vehicle and just waiting for engine failure like that’s some funny shit but fan boys will be fan boys
I agree with keeping the truck. Love my 2020 TrailBoss everyday I drive it more n more. Getting it leveled tomorrow. Can't wait
Isn't it level from factory ?
@@bryce8174 nope still has a rack in the front.
My 2021 5.3 TB wouldn’t start from the dealership and they replaced the battery, and then it wouldn’t start again after not driving it for 2 days. Hoping it’s not something more serious. Glad you got it fixed!
Good luck with your truck! Keep the vids coming!
That's how your break in new lifters, floor it.
Glad someone else was thinking this. Who knows what this kids done to that truck. Just got it back from the shop and gives her the full beans! Every time I buy a new vehicle I go easy on her till atleast the first oil change.
I think your Trailboss looks better with the stock wheels. Sharp truck! I have a black Trailboss 6.2. I love it!!!
I also think it looks better with the stocks!! You have good style my friend
@@gueroburban4989He should keep the stock wheels and maybe a little bigger tire such as a 305/55/20. A little taller and wider. Would look really good.
Thanks pal!
@@seanwhipkey1452 definitely go with the 305 tire
My uncles truck with the 5.3 has this problem at 77k miles. He towed it to the dealer and they told him that it would need a camshaft as well as some lifters and pushrods. They quoted him $7,800. I’m not sure why so much, but at that price point he should replace the engine
I have to admit though, that thing sounds great after it's been all fixed. Great truck!!
Good to see they took care of you and didn’t give you any crap! Keep on keeping on...
I think I missed something: when it wouldn't start at the dealership, after the repairs: "..that needed to be tightened"? What exactly wasn't/needed to be tightened? Was it the battery, or a related power cable?
Probably loose terminal
I feel like you could hear it crank for a second when he first pushed the button
Good luck, we’ll be watching.
Good to see it was functional when you picked it up........
Its a solid motor, you had a case of bad luck. I have a 2021 Trailboss with a 6.2L as well and I am a GM technician. Truck has 5k miles no problems so far. Did my first oil change at 1k second at 4k and will continue to change the oil every 4500 miles. I also bought the extended warranty thats good for 7 years or 100k miles for $2k. Ill be honest just keep up on maintenance and these motors are amazing.
Wow I’ve had a Tacoma for over 100k miles and I’ve never heard of this.
4.7 toyota 315k no issues at all. Hard pass on chevy.
Toyota is on another level, GM is several steps down on the reliability charts these days.
O5 Tundra 190,000 enjoying it. Repairs have been normal wear. Would love to try newer truck but not yet.
Surprised the "Toyota's aren't real trucks!" group hasn't infiltrated this comment yet.
2010 Tundra 237k strong.
Lol @ anything GM.
@Too Tall those old Chevy are nice.
glad your still feeling good about it and they fixed it
I have a fifth gen camaro (6.2). I had the same issue on 7th push rod bending. Same ticking noise. The car is great
I dropped GM back in '04 due to 3 new Sierra's in a row having steady issues, one after only 10 months. Problems never really got fixed by GM due to them being too cheap and hee hawing around hoping they get out of warranty. Hardest thing for people to do is get away from that dang "brand loyalty ", I was full on Chevy, but now drive a f150.
F150 5.0 or the F250 7.3 best trucks you can buy today period
Lies
Ford sure as hell to the crusher have you heard about ford thousand s of recall bad ones😮
It's a new truck man, that's why you have warranty for just enjoy the truck!
Warranty or not who wants a 50k truck that keeps having problems?
@@VABlueRidgeExplorer I do as long as warranty takes care of it
But this just makes him not want to do anything to the truck,lets say he wants to get a custom tune. Tunes themselves done right could be safe but if this happens again they can and most likely will blame the tune
But the point is it’s a new truck and already giving problems!
36 month, 36,000 miles, goes by quick.
As someone who works for gm I'm glad to hear they did get it fixed. For everyone hating these issues are not just a gm thing. Things can go wrong with a new or used vehicle. That is why you have a warranty. These are man made vehicles. With so much technology that it's not if things go wrong but when. It sounds like at first you had some issues with the dealership. I don't know if anyone's aware but most manufacturers have roadise included in your 3 year 36k b2b warranty. In your first video it seemed maybe your salesman at the dealer didn't explain that nor did service seem aware.
It's okay man, we get it. There're problems with any brand, seeing how sacrifices have to be made to save weight, cost, etc. My 01 Tundra has lasted for 22 years this month per the manufacturer sticker from the factory, and it's only now, 230k miles of towing trailers later, that it needs just cat work. My mom's new Chevy Silverado, however, has gotten its rack and pinion replaced, all ball joints, cat's are all gonna be replaced soon from clogs, engine's tapping now, and she's only had it since October of this last year with no rough trails, towing, etc. It's been on city roads, whereas my Tundra's been pulling offroad for cattle half it's life so far!
It's all about giving the engine time to refine the design, and as such we have recalls, companies replacing entire vehicles, etc! Toyota had made the best v8 out there, and nobody could compare because the refining that went on over the years! Experience matters!
@@potatonumber200 Toyota is not what it was.
I have a 2015 5.3 Silverado with 90,000 miles, with absolutely no problems, but I think my only saving grace was that I had changed the oil so often , im talking 1500 to 3000 miles and it runs and preforms awesome....
I think that's a very important thing with oil changing. I bought a used 2015 with 84,000 mi on it and on the service report sometimes the previous owner went way past due. Anyway I drove only 46 mi with it and the lifter went. Wait a 3 months for an engine but GM gave me a new one and with this one I'm going to do exactly what you do change it every 3,000 with full synthetic.
@@ericbecker1699 Did it have a loud tick on start up? That would be why it would have died.
"It's a common thing"> Well, That pretty much sums up the Chevrolet trucks for 2021 then, doesn't it.
Chevy engines have been having lifter issues since 98, this is nothing new. The 4.8, 5.3, 6.0 had issues with lifters sticking, the gen 4 LS developed lifter issues due to DOD/AFM and as we can see the gen 5 are carrying on the family tradition.
works out great for the dealership doesn't it? the customers just bend right over
@@johncrankshaft2886 The next tax payer funded bail out will fix everything....just you wait!🤑
I’m glad everything worked out for you. I have the same truck but it’s a 2020. I just ordered a 4” BDS lift kit. I’m looking on getting Hostile Rage 20x12 -44. I’m not sure if they will fit without a spacer.
I'm glad you got it fixed.
I wish I had watched this before I bought 2021 GMC Denali 1500. Blown engine they are gonna replace half. I guess it doesn’t matter since the replacement is same junk that failed first time. It took me 20 years to buy a GM product after living in the service department with a 2000 Escalade. After 3 F-150s and a Tundra over that 20 years with no problem I get to own a $65000 truck that blew a engine and probably will again. I am glad you are OK with yours. I will die before I touch another GM product.
That truck is sick. Ford, dodge and the rest of them have problems too. I still think this truck is way better looking and just a reliable as any other. I'm glad you decided to keep it!!
Exactly.
Chevy And Dodge are far superior to Fords in my opinion.
It is a sharp truck & you're right they all have there issues but that one would be gone.
Tundra?? Is barely strong enough to pull itself.
Dude sell that thing, you’ll only have more problems in the future
Guaranteed more problems coming.
This same thing happened to a friend while I was selling my jeep and looking for a truck. I went and got a Ram Rebal . Ran that for 71,000 miles . Got rid of that and got a 2500 Ram 6.4L . No problems on my end . My buddy had multiple problems with that truck and his wife's Suburban head casket went . Glad I went Ram lol
I have a 2014 Silverado 5.3 V8 with 99,300 miles so far so good no major issues. Only thing that went out was thermostat at 97,000 moles
