- I wish I didn't have to post this video but my 2021 Chevy Silverado LT Trailboss 6.2 has left me stranded! This is a really unfortunate issue plaguing GM vehicles right now and unfortunately I was one of the unlucky ones! I will update y'all whenever they update me, really hoping this issue is resolved properly!
Here’s the update :) th-cam.com/video/rZiKEcvTz6M/w-d-xo.html
It sounds like no oil is in it.
The answer is GO GREEN! 😘Plus add 1000lbs of emissions to new Gassers, and Deisels Don't forget the 10% for the "big guy"🌈
you bought an american car! POS
@@yenkodavi3573 a lot of GM stuff is made in Mexico
Imfscrew is that an aftermarket exhaust you have?
I think GM got a little carried away with the cylinder deactivation. It's supposed to turn off 2-4 cylinders. Not all 8
Good one!!
Exactly!!!!!
Fuel Savings technique!
The Silverado cylinder deactivation can turn off up to 7 cylinders atleast from what I've read.
@KCBOBX by not shutting off half the motor. GM was actually pretty smart and they changed the way it works. It's a variable V4 which means that it doesn't just fire the same 4 cylinders, it still fires all the cylinders it's just half as much. The effective result is that you just have the engine firing half as much, but you still need to maintain the RPM which is. So by using that stored energy to keep it rotating at the same speed, but firing less, you get a better gas milage.
Edit: typo
For everyone having this issue. Make dang sure you're filing a report with NHTSA. Recalls don't get forced by the feds unless NHTSA sees an overwhelming issue.
I’ve reported all the issues with my truck on there
They'll find some bullshit loophole like they did with the 07-13 lifter failures, they should spend less on the legal team and kick some back towards improving quality

Plus, this really isn't a major issue on the Carfax. It isn't like it is an accident or theft.
When GM integrated that cyclinder deactivation on pushrod engines, quality went downhill
6.2 dont have dod i thought?
Having heard and read horror stories with AFM and DFM I'm so glad mine didn't come with either... Conductor shortage. I'll happily drive 14/20 with my 5.3, as a V8, as it was intended from the moment of creation.

Sorry about your truck... after 40 years of buying GM, my engine blew on my Denali Yukon XL. This was my 17th truck. Everyone of them had trouble without exception. This did it for me... I traded it in for a Toyota Tundra. I miss the bells and whistles with GM but the dependability is worth it. Good luck with your claim.
That’s the way I look at it. I would rather have reliability over bells and whistle‘s all day long. You can always add bells and whistles to a lesser trim.
Yea I have a tundra. 170k no issues. This donut bought a new Chevy with 5K miles but hell, Mexico can build trucks!
@@BenH3939 A fellow youtuber pointed out...Silverado is made in CHINA!!! I checked and by Christ he is right.
My new Tundra needed a battery at 6 months....rest of the truck is flawless. Almost 10 000 kms now.
I bought a Tundra. Just don’t use it to actually work the transmission will not hold up. Mine is in the shop getting another transmission under Warrenty. I use my picks for snow plowing contracts and also to haul equipment around.
This issue is still happening. Purchased a 6.2 Trailboss yesterday. Today, exactly the same symptoms as your truck experienced. Failure happened with 72 miles on the odometer. Towed to the dealer with them saying one of the cylinders has lost compression caused by a broken spring or collapsed lifter. They will crack it open tomorrow to officially check the cause. The door sill has a manufacturer's date of 7-21. Didn't even have it for a full day.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 my bad bro but what 72 miles and the sad thing is its a 2021 thats crazy 😕
Damn sounds like a piece of sh*t truck
Damn thats cold blooded

Chevy’s strongest point “Their Engines” is now it’s weakest point. All that AFM/DFM crap is destroying their engines and all that the GM engineers are doing is sitting on their asses doing nothing about it. This is pathetic!!!
Blame politicians or democrats
@@sschevmale24 more like incompetent engineers
Blame the EPA, they are the ones forcing the manufacturers hands. Don't worry, bejing biyden will save us all with his electric vehicles with batteries from his chinese buddies.
they have actually deleted to the AFM/DFM in their engines as of March of this year. I just bought a 2021 trailboss with the 5.3 in it and it does not have the DFM.
@@juanseguin111 nope. Blame democrats, the only issues with new American cars are emissions related.
206k miles on my 06 tahoe. still running like a charm. whenever get a new vehicle it definitely won’t be anything from chevy unless they get their shit straight.
You're dreaming.. it only gets worse as time goes on. They can't fix anything when they're constant trying to reinvent the wheel.
Your Tahoe is one of the last quality cars GM made before they went bankrupt.
Same. 05 suburban with 217k on it. I love this generation of Chevy; enough to make it luxurious without going over the top, easy as hell to repair and parts are widely available. The only flaw is the 4l60e....but in my experience, rebuild it once and you'll never have a problem again.
I doubt I'll ever buy a newer vehicle. I paid $6k for my suburban in 2018. I can't justify the cost of new vehicles when mine rubs perfectly fine. I just see more things that can break on new cars.
Mine hit 300K still runs like it’s brand new
@@Lu-e that bmw?? sheeeshhhh
250k on My 06 Tahoe z71- No oil seeping- everything working- on 5k - No oil use - transmission shifting like new. With 4.10 gear from factory- using mostly for towing.
Yeah my uncle has a 2500 Denali that did the same thing under a thousand miles. They honored the warranty and dropped a new engine in and he hasn’t had an issue since
Some dealers don’t honour it which is stupid
He will again if he doesn’t disable that AFM bullshit
Why would you accept a new motor in a brand new truck? I want a whole new truck
@@axebeard7677 right, any truck failing less than 10000 miles I ain't going to trust that truck no more lol
Feel like Chevy lost its way after the vortec engines.
I just think they like to cut corners more now and the quality control of most brands like Ford and GM is disgraceful nowadays
Amen brother
I'm watching all these videos of issues with new gm's and I'm thinking I must be lucky. I'm still driving an 07 escalade esv with 6.2 vortec and thank God no issues at all. It's sad to see this happening with GM.
The 4.8, 5.3, 6.0 and 6.2s were all great engines… until they started putting active fuel management BS in it… ruined it.
Gm didn't learn their lesson with the V8 6 4 Cadillac engines. WTF Chevy?!
Go to dealer and take pictures when the motor is apart like me! The heads where pitted and damage and they slap mine back together ! Then it happen again! Yes it sucks, I’m done with GM after 30 years ! You will get it back and it will still tick!

👏🥰👍👍👍👍
Haha, you Toyota guys are funny. The older yotas were awesome. New ones? Total piles, just like any other brand. I'm a Ford and Toyota guy, but even BOTH of these brands are having a LOT of problems. Mostly sensor and electrical that I see, but fitment and other major quality issues.
They are certainly not well made, just a decade ago. Quality is going right down the toilet, Ford too. They are riding the name.
Facts facts, even when my feelings are involved.
Regardless of the issue, if it went t*ts up this early, don't expect it to get better. Turn it back in, get all your money back and move on.
You can't just turn a sale in after moding the ECU. His own video will be the downfall. I really wish him luck as I bought a Badlander for 90k and hope this doesn't happen to me.

Sad to see chevy go down hill with quality. Everyone I know who has one has so many problems. I've always had a Toyota and I've never been stranded on the shoulder. I plan on keeping it that way. Well thank God for your warranty tho.
My uncle has the same exact truck and the same thing happened to him at 4300 miles. He ended up needing a total top end rebuild, the lifters are apparently what caused it.
my 2019 was the same way; new cam and lifters at 25,000
I loved the way the truck looks and really love chevy
Ive had 3 toyotas and went back to a tundra with a v8 that stays v8 full time
Dynamic fuel management and 8 speed transmission is too many
when you restrict oil to shut off cylinders thats bad engineering.
GM still sources their lifters from the same Chinese firm that Dodge/Ram used to for the Hemis up until 2014. They are absolute crap.
I just got mine. 28 Miles, even worse problems than LFM Screw (imported it from Texas to California, bought it outright). Big mistake, not buying locally (and test driving it), but there was no inventory because of COVID here (and what inventory there was - was $20K higher for less truck). I fear this DFM, Autostop, Cylinder Deactivation, etc., is yet another issue related to liberal/ leftists and their "emissions control panacea/ utopia" (radical environmentalism). They're killing this country.
@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO had to blame liberals for nothing... Good job
@@RigginTheRod010 No man he's right. They are pushing and presenting new climate bills on top of what is already going on. They are making vehicles have to comply to emissions standards which actually are doing more harm than good.
I would almost guarantee that an AFM event caused a lifter to overextend and bend a pushrod. Seen it HUNDREDS of times on these LT’s. The fact that it happened while cruising adds to the likeliness of that being the culprit.
It is that cyclinder deactivation crap they put in those engines to save mpg! That is a guarantee!
@@mion1981 - I think the cylinder deactivation is also so it passes newer Federal and State (like California) Emissions Control requirements (smog).

@@mion1981 not a guarantee you are very incorrect sir
AFM has nothing to do with emissions.
@John Smith your burb only has to pass emissions standards for its model year. 2022s have to pass whatever regulations are in place for that year
I wouldn't accept anything but a new engine . Metal shavings are all through that engine and it's junk in my opinion
I agree but they won't If it's the lifters then they will replace the lifters and ship it not the decision of the dealership or the mechanic but GM.
Agreed A few people I know are just like they will replace the lifters and all will be ok …. I am like are you kidding me that bitch just made some metal !!!!!
Shudnt dey flush d engine to get rid of d metal shavings?
Whole things are junk, if you get a new motor the tranny will probably fail within a few miles and the rear end.
Most likely not with a lifter and how little he drove the car after it happened. I would definitely do a few oil changes. One immediately after the work and another in 500-1000 miles to be safe.
I'm a GM mechanic. The V8s live on all our hoists ! No idea why GM insists on making such junk. You'll be lucky to make it to the 2nd oil change.
Wow....I haven't made it to my second oil change. Made a appointment today, in now my truck is acting up. 11,890 mile on it...Damn

amen!
If something failed at 5K imagine how much other stuff went wrong in the production process
I don’t think it matters what you want them to do GM tells them what they are going to pay to get it fixed.
He mod the engine so if the dealer finds out that he void warranty he would pay for it
Needs a 5.0 Coyote swap 💪
Same thing happened to mine. Exact same noise, lifter collapse with bent rod. Mine was at 8k miles. Traded two days later for my f250. Good luck!
Did the value of the truck get affected after it was fixed?
Exactly 💯
@@bigboiz101 not really, I paid 47 for my LT TB. Traded for 45k. But what would kill you is if you had to repay sales tax. In Texas you only pay sales tax on the price difference. So only paid sales tax on $8k. So... but yea if a state that you pay full again, probably loose your butt.
Newer GMs are iffy, I wouldn’t touch them with a 10 feet pole
Great, you traded it in for another junk? LOL
Ever since 2008 the absolute first thing to do with any LS/LT enhine is at the bare minimum get a tuner and turn off all DoD/AFM/cylinder deactivation software...it would be wise and the best option to have it mechanically deleted as well.
@burgerflipper yes, it will
DO it if you wanna keep the otherwise great tuck! The 8 t0 4 cyl shit is jamming the eng on transition to other modes!! The Plug in module nsold on line STOPS the 8 to 4 cyl mode and HOPEFULLY eliminates the problem. What a damned shame GM!
This same thing happened to my 2021 Chevy on my way to work two days ago. The dealership tried to get out of offering me a loaner. The guy said “You’re just like 4 other people that come in here every day with this same problem.” They told me I’ll be at least a month without my truck. My daughter and I were all set to go on a 2000 mile road trip next week. I’m glad it happened close to home.
I think it is only affecting the Mexican made trucks. You can pay a little extra and get one made in Fort Wayne Indiana. The ones put together in Mexico are using cheap chinese parts in the engines and transmissions.

Makes me love my 1993 Silverado even more. My friend has a 2021 Silverado coming up on 5000 miles. I hope he doesn't have this problem.
His engine blew bc he installed a Pulser LT that messes with the way the engine performs from acceleration sensitivity and disables some factory settings. It didn’t go out just because it’s a bad lemon. He installed that junk expecting to “unleash” the v8 beast and instead unleashed death on his v8 and voided warranty.
Send this video to your friend and maybe he can get it resolved before any serious damage is done to it.
The 1988-1998 were considered the last of the Good Ones Behind the 1973-1987 square bodies which were considered the toughest.
You got that right. I got a 94 k1500 . That's when they had pride in their trucks and built them to last. I wouldn't have a new truck.
How is his truck now?
I have a 21 trail boss. I luv the truck. My lifters went at 6900 miles the first side , 1000 miles later the 2nd side went. Now I put an AFM deactivation module in the ODB 2. 17k now and works like a champ.
Good job doing the deactivation. Supposedly all these bad lifters/bent push rods are bad batches of parts but who really knows.They should recall them.

This issue is very common with the new 5.3 Ecotec Motors. I am a General Motors technician and I've had countless silverados, Sierras in the shop with the same issue.

I'm a Chevy/GM guy myself and hearing of all the problems they are having with the new models is pretty damn disturbing man. Sucks this happened to you man, that truck was lookin damn good. Hopefully everything works out brother
@@thunderbolt5354 how so ?
I had a new 2019 f250 with 12,000 miles and the transmission grenaded itself. New trucks are just junk
I think it is only affecting the Mexican made trucks. You can pay a little extra and get one made in Fort Wayne Indiana. The ones put together in Mexico are using cheap chinese parts in the engines and transmissions.
@Edgar Martinez my brother in law had the same problem with a 2009 4.8 with 120,000 miles
poor american quality stop buying gm products
I was a dedicated GMC truck fan and owner for 35 plus years. In the 2000’s the quality went down hill. I made the switch to Toyota in 2012. I haven’t been disappointed. Definite difference in quality. Not turning back.
You're only gonna get happier knowing it'll run forever and you'll get your money back when you decide to sell it.
Same here bought a new Chevy back in 2014 nothing but problems, i bought a used Toyota and so far not even one problem.
Can beat a Toyota. I had a 2012 Tacoma with 180 on it. I bought it with 30. I ran the piss out of it for 150k miles. Not s single issue. Got rearended by an 18wheeler 2months ago. RIP taco
@@DieselAddict-vs9fc That’s real good but there’s a difference between a Tacoma and a Tundra
@@briankrahn2000 my moms got a 16 tundra. Been a damn good truck.
I was once young like you and in 1988 I bought a new 2500 4x4 and it with through five alternators and after watching the serpentine belt come off on alternator #5 and jiffy pop my truck’s hood I knew I had more than enough. Sad to see things have not changed. GM just does not have the engineering ability/tenacity to deliver quality. Now in 2022, 33 years I still have not entered a GM showroom.
No I wouldn’t want the truck back,
I would expect all money back I paid and get a different truck. Good luck to you my friend 🙂
Assuming that the warranty wasn't voided.
What sucks even more is the tow truck driver stating he’s towed several 21’s
Tow truck driver that picked mine up told me the same thing
Damn fella’s, I’d unload em quick
@@jesuscazares8638 tow truck drivers say that about any truck😂😂😂that’s their favorite phrase “tow a bunch of these.”
Fords I Bet 😭
Neighbors trail boss he got burned on died he bragged cause he got 20k trade on a land cruiser which was a burn then he paid 64k and only had it 2 weeks
Now he owns a first gen tundra and the rear end fell out of it in his fresh ass driveway.
Poor guy
First of all, I just want to inform you that I live in Bangkok, Thailand, so the GM products in the Asia/Pacific Region where I am may not be exactly the same as what is sold in North America. Having said that, what I use is a GM vehicle under the Chevrolet badge. We have a Chevrolet Trailblazer, 2015. This is essentially a modified Chevrolet Colorado to create a station wagon, or SUV body-on-frame of the compact size. The engine is a 2.8L Duramax Diesel unit with a turbo charger, putting out 200hp and 500Nm of torque. We use it in town, driving less than 7000km per month, with about 4-5 trips a year to the beach, meaning around 650km per trip (to and fro). After using the vehicle for only 3 years, we had some issues with the engine. At the dealership/garage, they informed us that the turbo body was cracked and needed replacement immediately. My wife informed me of this at the time and I was shocked! I thought that such a major repair should be at least 10 years down the road with the low mileage we have on it. The good news was that the vehicle was still under warranty, so they changed it for us free of charge. They however informed my wife that had we had to pay for the new turbo charger, it would've costed us 37,000 Baht or about 1,100 USDs. We have had the vehicle for nearly 6 years to date and have not had any other major issues with it. Despite not having anymore issues with our Trailblazer, we are not going to buy another GM vehicle not only because GM had just pulled out of the Thai market last year, but also because we still believe we shouldn't have had any major engine problems with the vehicle at all that early on with the otherwise new truck. From now on we will be looking at Toyota just to rid ourselves of any unjustifiable mechanical worries in the future.
PS: GM had not completely pulled out of the Thai market yet as they have GM auto parts company which are importing parts for sale to showrooms/garages that are still servicing GM vehicles in the country for at least another 10 years. I also heard of Delco working with local investors in setting up Delco service centers that will service GM and other makes as well. Possibly, some time in the future GM will be back in the Asia/Pacific Region.
The Trailblazer in Asia is basically an Isuzu Mu-X. They are bulletproof. Be wary of their Chinese based /Daewoo. The 1.5 turbo sucks!!!
I work for a Chevy dealership and I wouldn’t drive a Chevy past the early 2000s if someone held a gun to my head
I traded in my Chevy truck for a ram with the hemi head engine and I’m so happy with the performance and the fuel mileage I am truly impressed
07' Ram 5.7, 230,000,pull 30' fifthwheel and 16' fishing boat. Life is good!
Ram is garbage now. I was always a ram guy but I went with Chevy. Ram is straight garbage.
I have a 2003 Avalanche and was going to get a 2021 Silverado but now I'm just going to refresh my Avalanche and keep it moving.
I’d get rid of it with as much money as you can, if this happened at 5k, there’s a number of other things that could go wrong, consider another brand or earlier model year
This. Right after the lifters went out on my 2017, the catalyst converters went out for some reason?
I just got mine. 28 Miles, even worse problems than LFM Screw (imported it from Texas to California, bought it outright). Big mistake, not buying locally (and test driving it), but there was no inventory because of COVID here (and what inventory there was - was $20K higher for less truck). I fear this DFM, Autostop, Cylinder Deactivation, etc., is yet another issue related to liberal/ leftists and their "emissions control panacea/ utopia" (radical environmentalism). They're killing this country.
@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO I’m sorry to hear about your truck, these things are such a big investment, to get screwed over like that really is tough, praying for you
@@sebastianmartin2853 - Thanks. I hope I can get it fixed or have GM buy it back. It's already cost me $400 for a rental car when I took it to the dealership (and they didn't fix it). I told the mechanic "it sounds like a bad lifter or push rod", and he was like "yeah, that's normal" (as if it happens all the time and I should just live with it/ not worry about it until the entire engine fails). This is crazy.
@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO yeah. That sure is the real reason right there, chief.... lol just blame the other side. What if I told you, both your side and the left are stupid. Zero leadership and vision.
I know 5 people that have this issue. One was 400 miles away in another state. He had to drive a rental home with his kids. When they found out he was out of state with the rental, they went off on his, even though he told them a number of times. He had to drive the rental back to Cali and drop it off.. I feel your pain. He got a 2021 Ram 2500 and he absolutely loves it. Will not buy GM again.
Ram is the way to go
The same thing just happened to my 2021 6.2L Trail Boss at 8K miles. GM service manager said there is indeed a bulletin out on the issue. I am contemplating what course of action I should take. IMO this will always hurt resale due to being a common problem. People with minimal knowledge on auto problem/repairs will tend to shy away from purchasing a model with notorious problems, no matter how minor and no matter the repair. Good luck with yours.
What did they do to fix it?
@@RoxyReyes The dealership replaced all 8 lifters on the effected side.
This is why I did not go with Chevy when I bought my new truck. I ended up going with a Toyota.
I might do the same. Always been a Silverado guy, but dam they half assed the new builds. Toyota might be in my future now
Good choice...Taco or tundra ?

I’ll be honest, its almost tainted now. I personally wouldn’t want it back. I currently have an 2018 Z71 with 25k miles on it. Love the vids. Good luck buddy
I have an 18 z71 as well with 30k miles on it, im loving it. I just installed the range afm disable and it drives like a totally different truck. I will never buy a new silverado. I work as a tech for chevy and we have had countless 20 and 21 silverado's in the shop with engine issues. We just had a 20 in the shop with 200 miles with a bent push rod. Those new trucks are garbage
@chevyguy when you say your truck drives different, do you mean it drives better? I have an 18 and am thinking about buying the range afm disabler.
@@willemrey39 it drives better
Hell my 18 needed rings an pistons at 25k was using oil
I had a 2018 Z71 with 28k miles on it and they had to replace the torque convertor and was still having issues with the 6 speed transmission. so I decided to trade it in.
Guarantee a blown maxi fuse is the reason it won’t crank. Super common. I work at a gm dealer. The lifters are absolute junk. I would never buy any newer 5.3/6.2. Such a common issue that we can’t keep up with rentals. Parts are on back order. Huge mess
Sometimes it’s just broken valve springs. Then again, Covid shut downs really hurt the quality in my opinion. All of the components where hard to get them all the parts manufacturers started back up and rushed through production to get products out. Then at the assembly line some people didn’t want to come back to work so there’s a shortage of workers. That puts the rush and pressure on everyone else there. It has been tough, I’ve been a GM master tech for 20 years, this past year has been rough.
Plus GM had a Union strike last year (not sure if it was related to COVID). But they also had a COVID shutdown. And then they had the parts (and Microprocessor) shortages.
Covid? Gm has had problems for many years now.....
Absolutely true statement! But with all that being said as a engine builder for GM there is a engine break in protcal that's not being done basically built and shipped for that reason shortage of everything including employees sad but true!
You probably voted for Alzheimer's bidin.
Got a1995 Chevy k1500 with 363,000 miles on original engine. They don't make them like this anymore.
No American product is worth a shit anymore
Too many computers
thats nothing to brag abot low milage
Guarantee it’s been rebuilt
Loved those like a rock commercials
GM has spent the last decade just slowly sliding off the line. I did a bunch of research and went with the 2.7l ecoboost F150 and have loved it. Plenty of power to tow and has done well on long trips. The 10 spd transmission is absolutely wonderful for the mountain grades as well. I am a technician and we do so much internal engine repair on direct injection GM trucks. Lifter failure is something we see regularly and 8 speed transmission problems have become a frequent problem. Im sorry about your luck
Lol you didnt do too much research if you went with a 2.7 ecoboost! LMAO!
2.7 liters is just too small- no matter how many turbos you have. The 3.5 twin turbo Tundra will be the way to go.
@@pythonman8103 exactly lol
2.7 eco is a great motor anybody that says its not obviously dont know shit, 3.5 is descent but the 2.7 is definitely a better motor. I come from a 14 f150 5.0 with 147xxx miles driven very hard only had front hub assemblies replaced at 80xxx. Would go 2.7 for my next truck for better fuel economy
@@shanedickman6180 a front hub has nothing to do with the engine. 5.0 is far superior
This problem is so common, I was fixing one in my repair shop when the Snap on tool salesman came in, he told me every shop he went to in the last week had at least one of these GM V8s apart for the same thing. Its pretty much every GM V8 from 2014 and up, most of the time the engine has to be pulled out to change the camshaft, sometimes your lucky and only have to remove the cylinder heads. There is a thing where people have made a tool to unstick the lifter but I did that on one and it didn’t last a month.
We need to start a class action suit over this
When you add a programmer and have the motor do something it was not designed for it is NOT GM's fault. Dude will be buying a new engine, this is definitely neglect.
Just go to Larry the lemon I call those guys already they are pretty good
@@texZR2 yes because the engine can’t handle 15 extra hp.. the lifters are known to go out stock or not.
@@tjmakings See... there you go making assumptions. We know this guy did exhaust, did he do headers as well, he has a CAI, that can be as much as 30hp or more gained.. then you adjust factory programing.. AND he is HAMMERING it, at that point, IMO GM does not and should not have to warranty the motor. The programmer explicitly states in their product warranty that they are not liable for any damage occurred by using their product.
So how F'ing stupid do you have to be to use a product that the manufacturer does not stand behind and that can void and should VOID your warranty on your new 50K+ truck.

If you are running a business and sell a product with a warranty. Should you have to provide warranty coverage when a 3rd party item is used on your product.. and it breaks your product. NO. That would be insane.
F'ing common sense man. I have no sympathy for this dude.
@@texZR2 my question is why would anyone with a 6.2 need more power? It's already one of the quickest and most capable half tons out the gates. The exhaust and wheels are just for posing because even if they do add 20-30 HP with exhaust, intake and tune, the question still stands... WHY?
As soon as they see you modified it that just gives them a reason to drop you. Good luck. Hope it works out.
And tuned it.. which makes it run better but i believe voids the warrenty😣 that sucks man i have 2018 Silverado 5.3 and i would be upset. Keep your head up bri good luck
Noticed mud packed in underneath
They have to prove the modifications caused The problem I've had lots of warranty worked on with modifications a lot of it depends on the dealership
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
They have to prove the tune, tires, exhaust or other components replaced by the consumer actually caused the failure. If they can’t prove these things caused the failure they have to cover it under the warranty.
@@mauricecooper176 with today’s times being hard to get parts and put it under “warranty” it’s not as lenient as it used to be.
I can’t imagine that happening! I’ve had four Chevy trucks, 85 to 09, but in 18 got a Tundra and as of now never going back. Hope everything works out for you.
Smart man
@@mrFoxYou1 nah that’s the dumbest decision ever. The fuel mileage on a tundra is god awful. The extra money you spend in fuel will cover the payment on whole other truck. There’s a reason NOT ONE COMPANY uses Toyota’s for fleet trucks. My Tacoma got 17 mpg and my tundra got 14 mpg. My Silverado gets 22 mpg and I can make one trash dump instead of making 5 trips in the Tacoma. My 05 ram 3500 dually gets 21 mpg at 70 mph pulling a suburban on a 18ft car hauler but my tundra got about 7 pulling the same load. Literally had to leave the tundra on the side of the road and have my employee come bring me the Cummins since the tundra sucked so bad.
@@MrPland1992 Well it all depends on the driver, if your a crazy driver then you’ll get even worse gas milage. Moral of story? Their heavy pick up trucks with large engines, gas milage is not a factor here
@@MrPland1992 Only reason why Silverados get better gas milage than the tundra is because their lighter, better aerodynamics, and cylinder deactivation. But what are the consequences? premature lifter issues
@@thinkkops853 yes it absolutely is a factor. I drive 1500 miles a week. A tundra getting 12 mpg cost $315 a week to drive. A Silverado getting 21 costs $180 a week to drive. The tundra was $450 a month and the Silverado was $300 a month. That’s an extra $540 a month I spend in fuel plus the extra $150 payment. I could literally have two Silverado’s for the price of one tundra.
I’ve had 400 vehicles since I buy and sell them. My corvettes get the same fuel mileage as a Honda Civic. Why the fuck would I spend $20k on a brand new civic, drive it 2 years and sell it for $10k when I can get a 2008 corvette for $8,000, drive it two years and sell it for $8500 and get the SAME EXACT fuel mileage plus have a MUCH safer car?
I had a 2015 Silverado and at 30K miles the trans started slipping and making a grinding sound. Still under warranty I took it to the dealer and they said that they didn’t fix transmissions there. I saw that there was a class action lawsuit against GM for that same problem. So I went with Toyota. Do your homework ppl. Love my Tundra.
It’s gonna suck if they blame the tuner you installed!🤣😂
Lmao that would suck 😂
He better be happy to get whatever they do.
Shut it off
They can. Depending on dealer some dont care others will just straight up void your warranty.
@@frbrbrgrblgrr7777 its not dealer that voids. On powetrain hard part failure gm pqc (ref bulletin 09-06-04-026) requires retrieving calibrations prior to disassembly, repair or replacement a copy of engine calibrations . gm will block all powertrain labor operation warranty codes immediately..
Its not the dealer. You buy a vehicle from the dealer not gm. Gm pays for repairs on your behalf to the dealer. If you have ever had non gm calibrations gm will block. Some dealers are not required to use pqc so the calibrations may not have to be proven. JUST RETURNING TO FACTORY CALIBRATIONS WONT WORK. ITS TRACEABLE TO HOW MANY TIMES ITS BEEN PROGRAMMED AND WHAT CALIBRATIONS HAVE BEEN USED
Typical issue. It's really really frustrating for customers, lately I've seen mileage 3500-8500 and the active lifters either collapse or separate, this will also cause pushrod damage. No engine replacement, but it will be fixed
“Throws the stock wheels back on.... it hasn’t been modded” “ I didn’t void the warranty “
Wheels won’t void your warranty. They have to prove said mod caused the damage to void warranty.
There are consumer protection laws. Don't believe the old wives tails.
@@terrymills6957 “put it in reverse Terry” it was a joke, I know wheels don’t void a warranty.

"Don't forget to fill out the survey and if you could just give us 5 stars or anything else is basically a 1 star. " I swear this is all the chevy guys up here care about.
To an extent, yes. However, the Manufacturer and dealership owner/management put so much stress on these Stupid, Completely Unnecessary and Absolutely Unfair surveys, that it is stressful. They tie the salesmen's and managers pay to them.
However, most (no, not all) but most salesmen do care about how things go with the vehicles.
Yeah it is. If something in your job was required for you to get paid I’m sure you’d care about it too bub
No kidding. The Chevy dealer I went to did the same thing. Was not a great buying experience. On my first oil change I took it to at the same dealer they put the wrong oil in my truck after I specifically Told them to use dextrose D not regular dextrose…I had to go back and have them put the right oil in it. Pretty incompetent that a dealer can’t even put the right oil in a vehicle they sell
Then they had the nerve to ask me to give them a 5 star survey on their “service “. Lol
@@chop2093 sadly they hold the advisors pay & many others to this. So they have to rely on others to do the correct/right thing so their check doesn't get hurt. So parts person, the tech, the porter, detailer etc.
Now I've heard to still do 5 stars BUT when they ask for a comment, make sure to say what the issue is. That's so advisor doesn't get hurt BUT ur issue gets resolved. We get any survey back that gets comment good or bad & obviously the 1s with low stars.
It's crazy bc our dealer is older, don't have all high-tech stuff for customers & a question is about that stuff. Gets bombed everytime, finally they took that off what the employee gets scored by.
The Honda dealers are like that too 😂

Only recurring minor issue (for now) is the sudden jerking in low gear which is attributed to the 8L90 transmission. This issue has been occuring since before the factory warranty had expired, but the dealer cannot mover forward unless there is a service bulletin that will allow GM to cover the cost. Fortunately I have an extended warranty up to 120K miles. I received the Pulsar LT and will install today and hopefully see positive changes from my engine. Trucks have truly come a long way. I also have a '90 S-10 with179K miles with orginal motor and transmission and spend about $4k to get it up and running.

I’m a die hard chevy guy but their last good year was 2005
Yeah I got a 2005 Sierra 6.0 2500 HD gas been a really good truck
I also have a 05 with 8.1 and allison and I have no intention of selling it
I used to like Chevy. Their newer stuff is garbage. I loved my 200k mile 2003 trailblazer, but had to disown my 2015 volt at only 54k miles. It was still under warranty, but chevy wouldn't approve warranty work on it. It needed a $9,000 hybrid battery replacement. Instead, it only got an update that reduced performance and range even further.
My 2019 f-150 has been the best vehicle I've owned, so far. Looks like I'm sticking with Ford. Too many of my coworkers have had issues with newer chevy trucks, especially those the 6.2l.
Loved my 05 Colorado Ls with a 5 cylinder engine. Was original owner put over 225k miles on it with original drive train
Good I got a 05. Runs good. Rusty rocker panels. But runs good.
Quick lesson: don’t buy a new GM today.
No doubt last body style (14-18’s) was the 8speeds clunking,condensers failing,driveline issues….why would the new ones be any better gm is done and an embarrassment and I’ve always been a gm guy my whole life -55-65,000 for these things and their breaking at 5000 miles wow..
@@toddprater14 I have a 15 gmc now with 101000 miles all stock with an engine and transmission tune and no mechanical issues, also has the 6 speed. I’m just glad it’s lasted this long. I replaced the condenser myself and saved a lot of $ but it wasn’t too bad.
Well Ford & Dodge aren't any better, so that leaves just Toyota then??
It’s ducked up because he added a mod to the motor and fucked it
@@josephwiese3937 and Nissan lol
GM has given up. They don’t care anymore. GM is putting out so much junk.
Hate to say it because I really like GM trucks, but they aren’t built like they use to be.
@nomore freedom those late 90s, early 2000 trucks are awesome trucks. Simple, reliable, etc.....
They aren’t built like they used to be but this guy also modified his truck more than it was designed to run on. You can’t add shit to a stock vehicle and just hop in a drive. Shit must be balanced out
I saw another story on TH-cam where someone bought one of the new Chevy blazers and quality control must not of been checked on it, because brand new from the factory it had the Buick logo center caps on the wheels.
Learned my lesson buying a new Silverado. Traded my 2014 ram 1500 2wd with 95k miles for a 2020 Silverado 2500hd 4wd. The Silverado didn’t last a week without my first problem with the transmission. Then electric problems. Got lemoned. Wish I still had my 14 ram. No problems. Now I’m stuck searching for trucks with high prices.
So sorry this happened to you, keep us updated on what happens
That's why I stick with 90s beaters lol. I hope they get it figured out tho.
I can't help but think this is not the reason why haha
I used to think it wouldn’t happen to me either.
1) 2000 Grand Cherokee trans problem hit me. $2300.00
2) 2006 Hemi destroyed itself. Dealer helped so $4800.00 for a Jasper engine.
3) 2 Chrysler minivan transmissions total $6100
I quit trying and went foreign cars now
Foreign doesn't always mean better
