Not to be devils advocate, but you should have been checking the oil all along. To go 3200 miles without changing the initial oil or never checking it is some negligence on your part. I can understand some of GM's postion that you bear responsibility for part or all of the damage.

True, I should have checked it but it still stands that oil disappeared.

Why didn't you check it at that point, or get it back to the dealer then?

You might want to re-read this thread. The second I heard a noise, I drove to the dealer which was at 3200 miles. No indication of anything wrong until that exact moment.

That is the question at hand.

I don't believe so. I had just moved to this area 4 weeks prior and didn't know a single person.
