Default GM increased warranty of its 2007 vehicle

The world's largest automaker increased the powertrain warranty on all of its 2007 passenger vehicles to five years and 100,000 miles. Previously, it offered a warranty for three years and 36,000 miles. The new warranty will apply retroactively to 2007 GM cars and trucks already sold.

More info......
1:09:39 PM ET 9/6/2006

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- General Motors Corp. (GM) confirmed Wednesday that it will expand its powertrain warranty coverage of up to 100,000 miles or five years across its entire 2007 car and light truck lineup in the United States and Canada. The Detroit-based automaker also said it will expand its roadside assistance and courtesy transportation programs to match the term of the powertrain warranty. The new warranty will also apply retroactively to 2007 cars and trucks that have already been sold. For non-powertrain components, GM said its limited warranty remains in effect: four years or 50,000 miles for Buicks, Cadillacs, Hummers and Saabs, and three years or 36,000 miles for Chevrolets, GMCs, Pontiacs and Saturns.

I wonder if they might give it up if you beg. I've seen some reports that say they will extend it for the 06's still on the lot. I've only had mine for 2 weeks.

No telling if they would go for it. Only one way to find out I guess. We just got our 06 too. But, even if we had the new warranty, it would only mean an extra year of coverage (which isn't bad). We are very unlikely to loose our coverage due to mileage.

There must be a reason.
They always say the grass is not greener on the other side.
They might have a problem with the 07 with the new motor.

I always tell them to "stuff" the extended warranty. Theres just too many things that it doesn't cover. When you really look it over, it leaves you wondering what's left to warranty.
