In the real world dealership will try to find a reason not to HONOR this warranty, like my new exhaust.

There are ppl that broke the output shaft with maggies installed. GM replaced the transmission. They know its a problem.

I'm inclined to believe the truth lies somewhere in the following (in no particular order)...
1. They never had any intention of notifying people but just made the statement to quell the panic
2. Had every intention of notifying everyone but a bean counter put a stop to it
3. Came to the conclusion that it wasn't nearly as big of a deal as it seemed so didn't bother calling people
4. Figured out that it's a design flaw affecting a lot more than they thought but have no way of fixing it other than replacing the broken ones
Its not a new design, but something is flawed.
5. Still don't know what's wrong and/or who's affected but are still planning on calling people
It seems spike is firmly in #5. I'm somewhere in 1-4. Cyn is implying 2/3.
Why can't GM just come out and tell us what the deal is?

Has GM changed their mind?
Seems we're all getting worked up over speculations again. Like I said before:

In the grand scheme of things there is a small percentage of cars that have experienced this problem. Collecting information from the customer about when/where/what happened is not 100% reliable as information traverses the process.
It needs to be investigated and proven to conclusively to state the problem.

Until then we hear something more officially, the general feedback is GM is taking this seriously and the broken cars are getting new transmissions.
Why have you made this your crusade? What is it about this problem that is driving you mad?
