Just looking to what the outcome of your visit to GM was. If you would please only respond if you have completed this recall, feel free to respond with year and mileage.

Mine was completed just a bit ago. Passed the test and they changed the oil. They have to order the oil cap. There was NO extra warranty included according to the dealership. So there is the end of that rumor too I suppose.

I understand that it was there, I was just saying what the dealership said when I asked about it. I was told no extension. Maybe it's something GM itself will add? I can only relay what I was told. Granted my truck fell under the 0000 recall. Not sure if that matters or not. According to My Chevrolet, the recall is still open. Maybe due to the fact they had to order the cap. LOL

Do I have access to that? I just look on My Chevrolet and see it still lists an uncompleted recall.

 

I am still waiting on the cap to be provided as they had to order it but other than that, the test and oil change was completed.

Every dealer does but not the owners.........its a complete history of the vehicle from the build date.  

 

One thing you got to realize with dealer staff is that its just a job to them and often times they only know and do what they are told. So asking them may be a waste of time.  Heck I was taking with a good friend who is GMC salesman for some 20+ yrs and he had no idea about the 6.2L engine problems.  Got more important things to worry about, making next sales, family etc. Sells cars is just a job, not passion.

So now my recall shows as complete. No where under my list of warranties does it show the engine had any special coverage. The only warranty on the PT is the normal 5yr/60K miles. Granted, I paid for an service plan through Knapp and Im covered til 2031 or 99950 miles.

Got my actual recall letter yesterday even though it's complete lol. It said I had the extended warranty so I decided to go look again. Yep, there it was. So I am covered for 7.5 more years and 120K more miles on the engine for that failure.

Thanks for the update. Got my truck in late June of '21 and I haven't received the letter yet.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future.

      Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it.

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me.
