Believe this to be 100% pure GM propaganda!!! That is, unless you have documentation from GM that can substantiate that??? Is it possible you have 1999 confused with the year GM simply washed their hands of and walked away from ALL responsibility for their #8 cyl. engine problem and left AM General holding the entire bag for GM’s design failures???
