The original post refers to Canada. Where 60000km=36000miles.
If GM functions under the assumption that it's OK to build cars that suffer major engine damage shortly after 3 years, then they deserve to go broke. I think it's reasonable for a customer to expect engine and manifold gaskets to last longer than 3 years. Moreover, GM knew about this problem all along. They kept producing faulty parts regardless. This wasn't a rare problem, it was common.
Yes you are the sole owner, but it's not in GM's best interest to tell these people that it's their problem now. Since it was a known problem, GM should pay for repairs for 6 years, after that, split the costs with the customer. It's responsible when you as the manufacturer are at fault and it's also good customer service, which is important in a competitive market. You wouldn't take this nonsense with other products.
