ON JULY 21 MY 2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO OVERHEATED AND HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE PROBLEM WAS A DIRECT RESULT OF A CRACKED HEAD THAT LEAKED ALL OF THE ENGINE COOLANT INTO THE OIL PAN. THIS DEFECT IS A KNOWN DEFECT TO GM PER A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLITEN THAT WAS ISSUED IN 2007. THE BULLITEN NUMBER IS #06-06-01-019B AND COVERS ENGINES MANUFACTURED FROM 2001 TO 2006. CHEVROLET HAS OFFERED TO ONLY REPLACE THE CRACKED HEADS WHICH DOES NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF THE COOLANT THAT ENTERED THE OIL SYSTEM WHICH CAN AND WILL CAUSE SEVERE SAFETY ISSUES LATER IN THE VEHICLES LIFE. *TT
