The issue is the dealer is being a bully and has not been taken to task by a atty versed in the Magnasun/Moss act of 1975. It covers all in question here, and a simple letter from one of these law firms should be enough:

This is a condensed version pertaining to the law:

The dealer may be trying to "double dip" and get you to pay AND collect from GM. This is rare, but occurs and is hard for GM to police.


Unless you installed a breather or a "vented" type catchcan/tank, than they have no grounds to deny your claim, especially as it is such a wide spread issue with these engines (do a Google search and find hundreds of failures of oil pumps) and if you have a closed system catchcan such as any of the Elite systems, then it is impossible for it to have any impact on oil pressure or the oil pumps failure.


You have done alot of good work, but time to search for a law firm versed in the Magnasun/Moss act and at least get a letter going out. DO NOT let this dealer bully you, you have the federal law and FTC on your side.


Let us know if we can of more assistance.
