that would be my thoughts as well but im planning on keeping this car for a long time.........if the dealership fixes it before the texas lemon law takes effect, which they have about 6-7 days left......after that im gonna force GM to buy the car back and ill wait a year till they get the issues worked out. Dont get me wrong i love the car but when im already making my first payment and i've only had the vehicle for the first week after buying it, it gets me a little miffed.......not to say that is GM's fault, which im actually somewhat displeased with the service dept at my dealership

It depends entirely on the scale of the problem (how many cars, and of those: the probability of an issue being present.)
Don't lemon laws require a repeated defect on the same vehicle? |

In Minnesota a car only needs to be out of service for 30 days. Also, in quite a few states including MN, if a car is waiting on parts to be fixed, that also counts as days out of service. Been through this whole process with my first 2012 Vert that GM bought back.

Same exact thing is Texas, I really liked the car minus the exhaust NPP rattle and the whole seized engine thing, but with it having a new engine at 1000 miles and if i ever did have to sell it having to explain why the engine has diff. miles then the car just seems like a hassle not to mention a bargaining point for a buyer... maybe my weird way of thinking but ya |

My Dealer ran mine for 16 min! Then I was forced to pay $3500!! 29k mi on the car!!
I noticed when driving that at stoplights my gauge was reading low (approx 10psi) which is adaquate to prevent engine failure, so I watched it like a hawk and it would build as rpms increased, but I nursed it home shut it down and checked the oil, which had approx 250 mi on it... Same as you it was at the full level on the stick and looked very clean... When I started it I kept my hand on the key and immediately after the gauge sweep it went back to 0, so I immediately shut it down and had it towed... Dealer calls and says it’s the sending unit and wanted $675 to put it in! So I tell them to f¥€k @ff and I’ll come get it. They call back 2 min later and say the gauge was broken and they can’t verify their earlier diagnosis... so then I get pissed and asked how does a broken gauge show false pressure! Push the damn thing out I’m going to have it towed. I was explicit that the keys are not to come within 100’ of the car until I get there. Got the the car home and my scanner said the previous ignition cycle was 16 min long! Motor was torched... brought it to another dealer and GM would not budge on making me Pay $3500 with 29k mi on the car... I was pissed and I asked them if they were prepared to lose a customer... no reply... bullshit! My brother bought a brand new 2017 Silverado LOADED w/ 5.3... 6500mi same shit, but they just replaced his pump... (3 weeks later) mine took a month...

GM dealers really are the worst. I won't buy another.

My ‘18 ZL1 is at the dealer getting a new pump now. Low oil pressure light came on. Seems GM has not sourced new oil pumps. Same problems for so many years.

I just got the "low oil pressure" warning. Same issue the oil pump failed. Is this common or known issue in the LT4 ZL1 engines?

Oh, man, sorry to hear. If anything like my experience, or will need to have your car sent to the dealer by flatbed. It will take up to 3 weeks for the repair. If you have any obvious modifications you might be looking at a non-warranty situation...very expensive.

I pulled over straight away and had it flat bedded to the dealer. It is being done under warranty. But I'm worried that if it fails again after the 3 year warranty (or is it 5 years) is over this will likely cost thousands. btw why does replacing an oil pump so expensive and time consuming? Any pics would be great on the ZL1 oil pump replacement procedure.
