Consumer Description

AT THE FIRST OIL CHANGE IN MY NEW 2006 GMC SIERRA, I FOUND PIECES OF METAL (ASSEMBLY FROM THE ENGINE) ATTACHED TO THE MAGNETIC DRAIN BOLT. SUCH IS USUALLY SYMPTOMATIC OF A DEFECTIVE BEARING OR SOMETHING. NO PROBLEM AS OF YET WITH THE VEHICLE, BUT REGISTERING THIS OBSERVATION. FOR RECORD PURPOSES. THE ATTENDANT AT THE PLACE WHERE I GOT THE OIL CHANGED SAID MY VEHICLE WAS THE FOURTH ONE HE'S OBSERVED WITH THE SAME KIND OF METAL PIECES. *TR
