I don't understand my G.M. Warranty.Maybe someone hear knows for certain about what the Drive Train coverage is.I asked my local dealer about engine electrical and fuel problems and he said "usually they are covered"and walked away.
What if my car quits and it is found to be an ignition switch problem?
What if the fuel pump gave out?

He's to busy doing damage control for GM after the Volts were proved to be about as safe as playing Russian roulette. Seems the bailed out bankrupted battery supplier built the batteries to explode and catch fire in a crash.
