Just had my bolt come loose this weekend, shredded the pulley and heat material on the hood, coolant blew all over the engine and all the way under the car.

Mine is in the range of the TSB.

Fight the issue with GM customer service. I finally got them to pay for the repair since I had a copy of the TSB and explained that they were aware of their own failure. This should have been a recall since it was a quality defect that they were responsible for. My has do fine since the repair.

Yes, only '05 cars....however, the pulley has been an issue, so don't hesitate to replace it if it wobbles, but it has nothing to do with this bolt issue.
