GM fixed my 2016 Stingray failed lifter problem by replacing all new lifters on the right bank cylinder head.
They had the car for 25 days and when it came back I couldn't tell that any work had be done, it was that clean. I asked them why don't you replace all the lifters instead of only doing one side of the engine? I found out from someone that works for GM that GM will only fix what's broken and nothing more. He said if another lifter failed this time on the left bank, they would fix that only when needed. The Chevy dealer has to have all repairs approved by GM before work can be started. If dealers do anything not pre-approved before hand, they will not be paid for the extra work not needed. My car only had 6,500 miles on it at that time. I was very disappointed that a new car could brake down with so few miles, but GM did stand behind the repair. I love everything else about the car and will keep driving as long as it is still under warranty. I recommend anyone that owns a C7 drive it and don't let it sit in the garage collecting dust. As long as it is under warranty any defeats will show themselves by driving mileage up, not sitting in the garage looking pretty. I have only owned two Corvettes in my life time (C1 and C7) and this C7 is miles ahead of anything else I've driven.
