Extended warranty by peterz0507

Does any of you had received any extended warranty for any problem?; like the engine one. If you do, please can you post any reference number or any information they gave you so I can use It to call customer service. They say they know nothing about it.

Hello Fellas
   I want to update all of you on my journey thru the GMC debacle and thank each of you for your input and just knowing that there are other people out there with the same "issue" as myself. It was good to know since GMC was telling me I was the only one. The dealership in my town really took an interest in this and resolved it by taking my truck back and replacing it with a new one. I haven't had the truck long, but it's nice to know that I can crank it up and not sound like a diesel starting up. It was a persistent struggle and sticking to my guns, not throwing a fit, but showing a genuine concern about this issue. The people at the dealership were great and bent over backwards to accommodate my issue. It is highly unlikely I will be buying a GM product again since this is my second lemon in the last 5 years. GM is like a bad used car salesman when it comes to problems with a sold vehicle - they don't want to hear it, and they don't want to do anything about it, and treat you as if you're trying to get something for nothing. I have nothing but praise for the dealership personnel at the GMC dealership in Kennesaw, GA. Terrific people and outstanding service, but a sub-par product. Thanks to all of you and my ISSUE hopefully is resolved. I only wish that this dealership had a more superior product because the people are outstanding, and it has been a joy to work this ISSUE out with them. GOOD LUCK! Semper Fi.

Good to see that GM resolved the problem to your satisfaction. I would not give up on GM altogether for your next purchase. I believe they do make some good products (Lacrosse, Lucerne, Malibu, Impala, full size trucks and full size SUV's). However, they also make unreliable vehicles like the Trailblazer/Envoy, Equinox, Aveo, Uplander, and the Colorado/Canyon. It's just too bad that GM can not design and build consistent quality vehicles across all their makes and models. Good luck.

Actually GM customer satisfaction when it comes to warranties is rated as one of the best with the least compliants compared to other manufactures. I believe it was data collected by Wards or JD Power, I don't recall.

My dealer keeps trying to sell this to me claims it improves mileage. I have a 2006 with 30000 miles on it. Any good?

Only thing it improves is his pocketbook. Don't you think if it worked GM would include it as standard equipment on their trucks since they are losing there you know what due to the poorer mileage of trucks? I think I would think about finding another dealer that was more up and up with his customers than trying to line his back pocket.
