It kind of follows like bad faith on an insurance claim. Judges frown on it. The consumer is constantly getting screwed! If it is not taken care of, I have every intent of bringing to light with the T.V.news and the news papers. Cars and trucks are probably the second most expensive purchase for most people out there. You shouldnt have to worry weather you will have warranty coverage when they state it when you make your purchase..
I just spent 20 minutes reading this saga, and I feel for you. I also have to say that experience has taught me the big guy always wins -even if you get your engine (and you're entitled to one) you will pay for it one way or the other. Therein lies the reason I've been driving Toyota's for the past 20 years. If Toyota made an honest to God 3/4 ton pick-up, G.M. and Ford would have been history by now.
Secondly, I thank you for saving me a bunch of money. I'll explain... I've been looking for a newer pick-up for some time and had decided on an older 7.3 power stroke, but have been unable to find one that didn't need lots of work. The 7.3 is tough and dependable, but the 4R100 sucks. The D-max is my second choice because of the injector issues, and some of my own experiences with G.M. warranty work in the distant past. Anyway, I found an '02 crew cab D-max in good shape, but have decided to go with a 6.0L instead. Now all I have to do is find one with 373s and I'll be in business.
