Consumer Description

2021 Silverado RST, 5.3. Started having strange loud random clicking sounds when first starting. Would loose power, at take off or when trying to accelerate. This was at 9400 miles on the vehicle. Was not showing any check engine light or issues on dash. When examining engine compartment, found loose bolts, that had broken. Took it to local Chevy dealership, acted like there was nothing wrong with it. Instantly trying to get out of performing work. I had a feel it was going to be lifter issues. Found out while there around 4 thousand miles it already had lifters replaced. After debating with them for two days, and trying to convince them there was issues. They finally found multiple problems with lifters, misfiring, rocker arm not moving due to collapsed lifter. They found broken bolts in cylinder heads. Ended up having to replace all left and right side lifters.
