Modern Chevy trucks and SUVs live and die by their V8 valvetrain. The 5.3 and 6.2 with Active Fuel Management (later Dynamic Fuel Management) are well documented for collapsed lifters and for oil consumption on certain years; the best defense is clean oil at honest intervals and taking the first tick seriously. The 8-speed automatic behind many of them had a factory bulletin for torque-converter shudder that a proper fluid exchange with the revised fluid genuinely fixes.
On the crossover side, the 2.4 Ecotec in older Equinox and Malibu models was a known oil burner, and the 1.4 turbo in the Cruze and Trax likes to leak coolant from plastic fittings and tire out its PCV system. Routine work for a shop that sees GM products daily.
