My dealer has been backordered since October 2004 on this part. He says because I didn't report it before my 36,000 mile warranty ran out, GM won't pay for the repair. Wondering if the Dept. of Transportation or other agency knows about the size of this problem.

Is the D.O.T the proper authority on issues like this? The only thing I have ever seen or heard of this agency doing , is giving me and other coworkers random drugtest all the time.I always wondered why the DOT would be interested in testing all employees (even the non-driver employee's)
