      @@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.

      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
