2015 Duramax DEF - warranty

[dennislbrooks]

I get my 2015 2500HD back today after the dealer diagnosed and fixed a dripping leak of DEF. The only other repair of the DEF was a recall about 3 years ago on the DEF tank heater - same GM dealer.

This time the DEF tank, pump and any associated parts are being replaced. I kinda thot the GM emission warranty might cover it (truck has 50K mileage) but it did not.

The total repair bill is around $1700 of which I owe $200 of it. When I bought the truck new I also purchased an 5 year extended premier warranty (total 96 mos.) at the dealer for $1750 -- Allstate. I just got back about 2/3 of that investment. Warranty runs out July 2023.

I usually would not have purchased this extended warranty but when I bought the truck I traded a 2005 C6. About 2 weeks before I traded, the EBCM went out and it cost me $2100 out of pocket to fix the C6. So......

I may/probably will buy an extend warranty on my wife's new Yukon when the sale is finalized.
