Dealerships are saying this impacts them, but the state says it doesn’t. Who’s right?

looks like the ICE used car market gonna be booming most people who buy new cars can’t afford a home charger, 67% of americans don’t have savings they’ll have to include them with the purchase (like ford does, idk if they still do) or build them into the loan/price. or people will just stop buying new cars edit - guess someone could just buy an ICE car in another state ---

I wonder when I will get my new 6.2L after GM just recalled 600k trucks. [https://gmauthority.com/blog/2025/05/gm-6-2l-v8-l87-recall-good-engines-to-get-extended-warranty-coverage/](https://gmauthority.com/blog/2025/05/gm-6-2l-v8-l87-recall-good-engines-to-get-extended-warranty-coverage/) The proposed fix is going to 0w40 and extending the warranty, but I believe that has been scrapped as a “fix” It’s bad enough the truck has been at the shop for the last 2-3 months waiting for a transmission valve body. ---

I can’t even imagine how long it would take to replace all those engines if they’re scrapping the 0w40 fix. I have a 2022 Tahoe, so we will see how this goes I guess. ---
