1 Gas Recirculation Valve (egr Valve) problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2024

While driving during a short spell of tempertaures around 0 degrees the rear main seal on the engine blew out. This was due to condensation freezing in pvc port of engine. This is a common problem I guess that Chevrolet is aware of on the 2. 4 liter eco teck engine. If I had know about the problem, I would not have driven the car in these conditions. When it dumped the oil, I was able to get stopped before major damage occured. There was never any warning lights before or after the incident. Why haven't the owners been made aware if this problem? why doesn't Chevrolet cover the cost of this design flaw?.
