Coolant Leaking Problems of Chevrolet Cobalt

Car suddenly showed symptoms of coolant loss a dye and pressure test was completed and found no external leaks. I drove the car to work the next day 15 minute commute and upon ariving low coolant indicator poped up I checked the dip stick to confirm my fear that the coolant was entering my oil system 1-way. Had the car towed to the dealership and after 2 weeks of teardown verified the engine had not signs of abuse and the head and headgasket was not warped or leaking/blown. The car was 2 months out of warranty and gm declined warranty. Luckily I have a 3rd party warranty and they agreed to complete the work due to known issues with said engine/ symptoms . Gm notified me they did not have a engine available and it would be until October before the engine was replaced and denied to offer rental while I waited after a month of fighting with gm customer service they agreed to lend a rental car.
