Significant Engineering Design flaws with timing chains, tensioners and sensors. Timing chain replacement at 65,000 miles. Causing outrageous repair bills. GM engines built 40 years ago never had these problems. Major failures! I have only purchased GM my entire life. I will never buy another new GM vehicle again.
Update from Jul 19, 2017: Timing chain was replaced at 65,000 miles. Huge repair billes now it needs to be replaced again at 135,000 miles. this is a huge failure by GM engineers. They should all be fired. AWFUL situation! Never buy a new GM vehicle. I have 50 year old GM cars that have hundreds of thousands of miles that never needed this type of repair. Customers are getting royally screwed.
