GM is replacing the head, but I was told they haven’t fixed the problem and it will happen again. Just wondering if anyone else has heard this.

Have a friend who bought one because it was such a good deal like you…At least someone is being honest with you. I’d expect more trouble. It is the least reliable pick up made according to respondents to CR and my friend. Why they dumped the reliable 4.3 in favor of better mileage for these motors they have now is a reason they are in trouble. If you can afford it, my advice would be to move on.
