My 2021 RST Tahoe with less than 6500 miles ( less than 5 mo old) left me stranded. Lifter failure. Highly unacceptable. Was without my car for 3 days. I was lucky and got a loaner. My dealership was fantastic. Why is there no recall with this being a known problem? This is my first Chevy…. May be my last. Disappointed in Chevrolet for not aggressively working to fix this problem. I’ve lost confidence in this vehicle to be reliable. Praying it doesn’t do it again.

Update: After may original post in early June 2021, I received my car back for lifter failure after 3 days. Not even 2 weeks later, this car failed me again. Same issues and now injector failure. I told them I was not interested in any parts or a "fix." Rather they could give me a new vehicle or replace the engine with a new warranty. Beyond irritated. I will NEVER buy another Chevrolet again. I am supposed to get my vehicle back today after being in the shop for 34 days total, with a new engine. I am also seeking some compensation for the Wifi and OnStar that I've paid for while the car has been inoperable. Praying it doesn't let me down again, especially on vacation. I'm really curious if there is or could be a class action lawsuit. Why is there not a recall at a minimum? My dealership has been the only saving grace in this nightmare. But they are sensing my lack of patience and irritation.

There could be someday. Note that in a class action lawsuit typically the law firm makes a ton of money while the offended parties gets a coupon like $500 off your next new GM purchase.
Because that recall could cost GM BILLIONS !!! Government won't force a recall most likely as could be detrimental to the economy, and likely not considered a safety factor. I don't have a GM with this issue, but I think if I did and had such issues I'd contact the TV news show "Inside Edition", they seem to like stories like this: https://www.insideedition.com/submit-story
