the top bolt on my fan shroud fell out when i was towing 3k and hit my fan ruining it, it then happened to my friend a couple weeks later on his lmm, check your bolts, has this happened to anyone else?

WOW that sucks. Did GM cover it.

If you saved your stock exhaust put it back on and put the tuner back to stock. Then take it in. They should in reality fix it regardless since neither the programmer nor the exhaust caused that to happen.

yeah i have the stock exhaust and could put it back on, i need to look in to see how much the new fan blades are before i take the time to do it, i could take it in and get them to fix it the way it is, but then if/when something major happens they will know about my mods and i will be screwed, my buddy got his fixed today so i am waiting to see the price of the part

just wait a little while and take the new parts from you buddy on his truck and put on yours take your old parts and he can tell them it done it again, just thinking if they can be crooked why not us

just take it in. The only time they will say something is when its a major repair like tranny, rear end. atleast thats what my dealer told me.
