2 Engine Clicking And Tapping Noises problem

Failure Date: 08/13/2020

I was driving on the interstate about 70mph and the car started sputtering and traction control lights came on and I thought the car was going to stall and cause an accident. I was able to pull off on to the shoulder and look under the hood. I thought it was a bad sparkplug or something. I hooked up a obd reader and got code p0306. Got it towed to firestone and they did diagnostics. They said it was a failed lifter, a known problem with gm vehicles. The ticking noise that it was making was from the failed lifter. I am hoping the camshaft is not damaged either.
