GM fixing to pay out?

Looks like GM has a massive class action on their hands covering multiple years over multiple engines, makes and models.

My ‘20 work Tahoe is going in tomorrow for valve train or cam issue at 65k miles. It’s tapping and chirping. Other guys are having the same issues and transmission failures. Then I’m told it may be down for up three weeks for parts. There’s no way I’d buy a GM product.

Every Tahoe I’ve had since 2012 has had major issues from engine mounts to transmission failures. This will be the first for major engine repairs. I don’t drive it hard. The only issue mine has is excessive idle time.

A coworker was a victim with his Silverado, major engine damage. Not a happy camper.

They all make turds. My '19 F150 is headed for the land of cam phaser failure and replacement at a whopping 17K miles. I'm not a happy camper either. I had hoped to keep this truck indefinitely, but as of right now I'm thinking of punting it once the powertrain warranty is up.

Almost nothing is made to quality for longevity anymore. And it seems to be getting worse.

I have to agree, and it's not just vehicles. Rampant cost cutting to appease the almighty shareholders....

My '04 F150 was an anvil, never one problem in the near nine years I owned it, just one very minor recall for the steering wheel clock spring. What a fool I was to get rid of it for the first of two Jeep Wranglers that were both complete reliability nightmares. Based on my '04 I had great expectations for the '19, but I don't have a warm fuzzy about future reliability at this point; the build quality definitely is worse than the '04.
