Description of the problem	The car said overheat-ac off code- car was very low on coolant- took to the dealer and was told by the dealer that the engine was blown and not to driive the car- i ask about service bulletin- but was told this did not apply. I had problem with overheating 18 months ago- replaced, thermostat, canister, etc as my expense. I ask if this was related and was told no. I researched problems and found many about engine and cooling problems. The dealer has made no effort to help resolve the issue. I tried to have car transferred to a different branch of dealership to have problem evaluated- i was informed by salesman that the dealer refused to transfer the car to have it checked. His seems very odd. I called gmc- chevrolet division but have not gotten a response. The dealer wants me to trade in car for a different one and will offer me $300-$600. Which is ridiculous. After i trade in the car-no one can check it- the car still runs but i am afraid to get stuck.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
