My brand new, 2021 GMC AT4 was diagnosed with a "bent" lifter.
The other day, I was rolling down the highway at about 50-60mph when I started hearing a clanking/knocking noise followed by some vibration. I took it easy getting it home as I had no idea what was causing it. I didn't drive it again until I took it in to the dealer. When I started it up, it began making the noise and vibrating again, even while idle in park.
They told my it was a "bent" lifter. Only have 9.5k miles on my truck. They are ordering me new parts, but I'm worried they're just gonna throw the same new factory lifters on there and I'll run into this same issue again.
Has anyone else had this issue? More importantly, has it led to any other components in the engine and/or transmission to fail?
Thanks.
