your powertrain warranty should cover that. take it in to GM. powertrain is 5 years 100k i think. if your stock its obvioulsy a factory defect.

Correct 06 is only to 60k

did some googling. powertrain is 5yr 100k for an 06 ss/sc. take it in.

edit: i think the 100k is an extended warranty. gm fails

you can still take it in and raise hell. thats not going to look good on GM's part and they might do something. id be all over gm if my stock car broke its rocker by itself at ONLY 71K miles.

I would defenitly call and state your case 71k stock car? shouldnt happen atleast see what they say

Dart_SI

considering there was a MODDED ss/sc over 200k miles, your car blew up because of a defect. id be pissed.

car has been to the dealer a crazy amount of times. i highly doubt they will warranty it

Dart_SI

iTrader: (1)

tell them how pissed you are that a stock car blew up at 71K. mention the word "lawyer" and i bet they might think about it pretty hard. lol.

op, did you service your vehicle when it was needed?

yea i tried calling but they keep telling me that powertrain warranty till 100k miles was only on 07 ss cobalts not on the 06 models. so mines was due on 60k. **** GM and their trash warrantys

yea i would do all the oil changes on time and stuff. is just the car has always been trouble, always on thing or the other...

I am sure that the 2.7" pulley you ran on a ZZP tune had nothing to do with it...

jonathan923

iTrader: (2)

it ran so bad that i took off everything amd sold all the parts...i ran that set up for very little time and that was when it had around 30k miles or less

PROPERLY MODDED.

I don't understand how people can beat the crap out of their car and then complain when it breaks. A properly modded LSJ will last forever! Bad tunes, insufficient cooling mods and heavy right feet is what kills these engines.
