Would this recall apply to 2000 model year? do you have to be original owner? or anyone who has the pleasure of owning these otherwise great cars would benefit?
sorry if this was answered already!

Okay, just called the dealer here, and they said that as of yet, it is still a TSB. He said that as soon as I get the notice in the mail, then I"ll know that the recall has officially launched.
Although, if I called GM now and got a service number and demanded they pay for it, they probably will.

Here'* the scoop, it is still a TSB and the cost is up to the owner,
For me, they didn't replace, they found someplastic heat shield was hanging and would rub on full right turns.
No charge for this and 2 other small things fixed

As an EX GM Partsman....I can tell you that the "LUBE" TSB is a crock of BS! This only passifies most owners until the car is out of the "WARRANTY" stage & then the customer is left to PAY to get the REAL FIX!
