Not even for the traffic citation for unsafe driving! <g> In your (I
hope) hypothetical case, you were the one who did something unwise:
you tried to repair your mirror while driving!

Surly they would have done an oil flush/change after the flood?

Why does "room full of monkeys with typewriters" come to mind?

I offered a suggestion for someone in a boat I wouldn't be in. I personally
buy $1000 or less vehicles, replace every possible rotable item, and run the
crap out of everything I own,for 5 to 10 years. And give them to people in
need, or the scrap collectors on garbage day. I do keep a new Toyota in the
garage , for when all my junks broken and its too cold to fix. Or I,m to
embarrassed to drive my crap into the nice parts of town. Or I,m fixing some
relatives or friends car. However, Repaired to the best of his ability and
traded in to a stealer . I mean dealer. Who makes one dandy of an inspection
, sitting in his chair looking through his window, with a big fat beer
belly, in about 2 minutes, and makes a lowball offer. And a sale. Is not
in any way low life. It's business. Business as defined by government ,
business themselves. And that supply guy in Kelly's Heroes. Its not
illegal. Its good to go... And No poor souls involved.... Business is always
more crooked ass then one individual. Crooked ass is a dealer putting two
head gaskets on one head in a Chevy 350 to sell it because the head cant be
surfaced anymore. And selling it to a customer. AS IS. Crooked ass is
exactly what happened to this guy. Instead of recalling the bad injectors ,
before they trash engines. Let's warranty them for 200,000 miles. Until
almost every GMC Duramax on the road is destroyed. Then do the recall after
our million dollar a year lawyers are done dragging the case out in court
for 10 years. Until all the trucks have destroyed themselves. Because
probably there will be a lawsuit and compensation enforced by a judge to a
crooked ass company. And there wont be anyone left to pay... No different
then leaving 1 layer of cords out of tires,to save bucks. Until they kill
people. Or putting improperly heat treated camshafts in new cars and
denying it for a decade. I don't grab emails on public unencrypted WIFI
either. I don't think its wrong either. Reality bites . This is a real
world solution. If you cant handle the reality. Go off to oblivious land
somewhere else.

WHOA! 02u, What a low-livin thing to suggest an honest man to do;
Pass this piece of shit off on to some other poor soul. That's
probably what had happened to OP. <g>

Wait til Will, Lon, Lz, Frank, Carl A. and the rest of the anti-WIFI
stealing group get done with you...

I mean these guys go ballistic when someone 'grabs' a free email check
on an open WIFI.
An their 'mean as hell' too!

This is BIG-TIME crooked-ass stuff you are suggesting compared to
copping a free WIFI. You better get ready for the attack, these guys
just won't stand for this stuff being posted here on RORT!! Good
Luck.. <g> -gar

You fired a missle, while trying to fix your mirror, while driving? No
wonder you had that terrible accident.

-------------------------

WOW! Now I get what 'None2u' really means. Your 'reality' really
sucks... I've had a
piece of it a few times, Never changed my principles and passed on my
misfortune on to
someone else because 'I got screwed' [did business with a guy like
you]. I got redress or 'ate it' and learned from my misfortune.

You fail to mention that because of your solution, [putting a Band-Aid
on this engine and trading it to a dealer] some other poor S.O.B. is
now going to have to go through all the pain and suffering OP is going
through.

Only it won't be a spun bearing this time, it will be his injection
pump, valve guides,
scored cylinders etc. Total engine failure. 2,000 Miles from home!!


Where does it end?

The right thing for OP to do is get redress or eat it. Most here
believe
he can get redress if he uses some common sense. Even to the extent of
getting paid for
his angst, or whatever you call it.

Hey GM doesn't want to have this big time on public TV. A good
attorney and him keeping his mouth shut will get him complete ++
payback in full. -gar
