G.M. Upping Powertrain warranties

DETROIT -- General Motors is increasing the Powertrain warranty on all its 2007 model vehicles sold in the United States and Canada to 5 years or 100,000 miles, the automaker said today.
The Powertrain warranty is transferable, without a fee, and has no deductible, GM said. Previously, GM's Powertrain warranty typically was for three years or 36,000 miles.
GM said the new warranty terms would apply to 2007 models already sold. The automaker is also extending the terms of its roadside assistance and courtesy transportation programs along with the new warranty coverage.

This is a great move on their part, considering the quality and reliability gains made over the last years, this is just another step that's needed to regain the momentum to capture market share.
