ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED OR REBUILT, HAD IT REBUILT. GM IS AWARE OF THEIR FAULTY ENGINES BUT CONTINUES TO SELL THESE CARS AND PUT FAMILIES AT RISK. THEY LOST A LAWSUIT BUT CONTINUE TO DENY CLAIMS & RESELL THE FAULTY VEHICLES. WAITED ALMOST A YEAR TO BE DENIED. THESE VEHICLES WITH THE FAULTY ENGINES NEED TO BE PULLED IMMEDIATELY & CONSUMERS NEED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE COST OF FIXING GM'S MISTAKES.
