Did you ever get a engine warning ? If not for the oil issue, the system didn't warn you, so regardless of what might or might not have occurred with whomever last changed your oil, the car is supposed to alert you before you get to this point. With all the diagnostics and warnings on these cars, no reason you should be sitting at a dealership having to battle whether you are to blame or not. You also have On Star still active, correct ? They also monitor your car status and engine health monthly. That also should have thrown a flag, and that also is Chevrolet administered. No reason you should see any pain from this, including a loaner until your car is ready to come home, but if the car has only 4000 miles on it and this is the second time, I'd be looking for a replacement. Sounds VERY fishy that you'd see this magnitude of issues. These cars are solid as a rock, yours must have come off the assembly line late Friday before a holiday weekend and been rushed a bit. The dealer should be working hard to get you a REAL GOOD deal on a replacement to keep your business. Good luck.
