I bought a 2006 Chevy Trailblazer with 8,000 miles on it from a dealer (a rental vehicle or something) and that they considered it new, not used and that it came with a full new warranty. My vehicle just broke down about 550 miles from where I live, they said the differential was out of fluid and it caused damage to transfer case and other things (total cost of $3,000). I thought the full new warranty meant it was 8,000 + 36,000 miles as the car salesman told me but the paperwork didn't say that so I guess i am screwed on the warranty issue (i had 37,100 miles). I had an oil change and safety inspection before I went on my trip and they said I had a differential leak and said to get it fixed when i could and the safety inspection guarantees they refill those fluids. So i figured I could fix this when i got back from my trip. I heard GM can sometimes help when it is just outside warranty? I am extremely upset for dealership about warranty and not alerting me to severity of leak....
