i dont see how your guessing i told ya what it was already. .

I went to take a look today for myself and the service writer that i had talked to was right the output shaft did break but what i he didnt say was that the broken 4''x1'' piece of shaft slinging in my diff completely destroyed the rear. it cracked the housing in three places. They said GM started asking questions after finding out the rear had to be replaced($3000) not just a $300 shaft. GM decided that the car's warranty was good after clearly seeing two different types of metal in the center of the sheared shaft ear-go product defect, That my mechanic told them about . Warranty coverage ...gotta love it.

That's great that they covered it...It's a good thing (for you) they didn't know about the drag radials....
