When a lifter collapsed on my 2021 Silverado LTZ with 6,000 miles and I discovered that the GM knew the lifters are defective and refuses to recall the affected models. I spoke to the sales manager at Dale Earnhardt, JR in Tallahassee, FL who refused to take any responsibility for the defective lifters in the engine in the truck that they sold me in 2021. Dale Earnhardt, JR in Tallahassee, FL fixed one bank of the defective lifters on the V8 and told me I would have to return the truck when the other bank of lifters collapsed. I am not willing to risk driving a truck and tow a trailer on interstates with a motor that could lose power at any moment. I traded the Silverado for a 2022 Ford F-150 XLT and joined a lawsuit against GM hoping to recover financial loss due to the defective lifters. The good news is that the F-150 is a better truck than the Silverado. The Ford F-150 XLT drives better, and the technology works better and is more user-friendly.
