because back when I used to chase after girls I would sometimes forget to check oil in my chevy. once I let the oil get 2 quarts low and . I was pushing the engine in a street race. at first the engine started to rattle. next day I put oil in and started it up and the rattle was still there, the engine was torn down and the number 3 rod bearing had spun, and I have had this happen on more than 3 other engines in 3 other cars, but not all at the same time.

im not putting the chevy down. just they tend to have this problem. but thats not saying ford and chrysler dont have there flaws, because they do. as do every automobile on the planet.
I was just pointing out what I think is chevy's weekness.
