I'm devastated because I have been told that my engine needs to be replaced by the mechanic shop because my piston rings failed and there was apparently gas mixed with my engine oil and little pieces of metal because of what it has done over time without any kind of warning light or alert to let me know something was wrong and has failed . So now they tell me its going to be 13,000 total to have a new engine installed. I took my truck to the shop to replace the oil pump because my truck kept dyeing while driving down the road and the warning light for low oil pressure kept flashing. Iv always had the oil changed on time and it always had the correct amount of oil in it at all times since iv owned it.
Now I don't know what I'm going to do. I can't afford to put a new engine in it, nor can I afford to just sell it as is and be able to afford another vehicle to drive. I don't know what to do. I seriously am starting to cry as I type out this complaint because I don't know what Im going to do. I'm not only sad because I'm scared and don't know what I'm going to do. I'm just as sad because of how disappointed I am in GM/ Chevrolet in general because I have never driven anything but a Chevy or GMC since I was 16 years old. I have bought a 98' gmc for my first truck, then also throughout the years a 2002 silverado, 2009 gmc seirra , 2012 silverado, and then I bought brand new this 2014 silverado crew cab 4x4. It was my dream truck that I always wanted. All my others were used when I bought them.
This was my first one that I bought brand new and I would have chosen it over any other kind of ride. I have always loved Chevy's and stood up for them when some did not. My dad had a 1981 black silverado square body, slick black, with red cloth almost velvet interior. I loved to ride in it when I was a kid. That's what made me a chevy girl to start. Now I'm scared to ever buy another one and that makes me very sad today. I wish since chevy new of this engine problem years ago, if they don't want to help replace them when they fail us. They should have not let us purchase a brand new truck for 40,000 knowing it would fail us.
I hope they do the right thing because if not it breaks my heart but I won't ever buy another chevy if I can't count on it to take care of me. Sorry for the rant, I'm just really bummed out and if anyone can help give me any advice or info it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for listening to me. Have a great day. ms. Jennifer Gaither
