Bought our 2011 Chevy Equinox last May from a dealership. I was never informed of the bulletin not verbally nor did we get a letter. Now I wss told to do an oil consu test and they would try to work with me. No such luck . I don’t know why they told me to do the test. I knew it was using too much oil. Dealer wants $3800 for the repair. What can I say. So disappointed in GM !

I’m confused, I have the 2011 Terrain, 89k miles. Its almost August 2018, will my vehicle be covered? What do they mean by “7 years, 6 months from when the car was first put in service”? Going to the dealer tomorrow.

I have been telling gm about the oil consumption since 2011 and said it was normal. Now i have 196000 km on my terrain and was never notified that there was a problem and now they have TSB 15285C out now i have to see if they will cover my suv
