Crankcase (pcv) Problems of Chevrolet Spark

I received a recall notice for my 2014 chevy Spark regarding the pcv valve indicating that the valve will cause the car to leak oil. I did not see this recall on your website so I thought I should inform you. Thanks.

My wife and I bought this as a certified pre owned vehicle for her to drive from a local chevy dealer on 1/24/15. We felt okay about the high miles with the vehicle being cpo and having gms 12 month / 12,000 mile warranty and 5 yr / 100,000 power train warranty. We only expected to be putting 12,000 miles a year on the vehicle so we thought we'd have a long trouble free ownership experience with it. That all changed 6 days later. We'd only driven it probably 100 miles since it was purchased and on 1/30/15 we were driving on the highway when all of the sudden the check engine light and traction control lights lit up and we lost all power. Luckily we were able to pull over safely. We called a tow truck and had it towed to the nearest dealer (not the one we purchased it from). The next morning we went to the dealer to discuss the problem and pick up a loaner. The service rep at the dealer explained that the problem was probably related to the pcv recall and his best guess was that there was damage done to the vehicle prior to the recall work being done. I wonder if this could have been / should have been something tested as part of their cpo process. We got a call on 2/3 from the service guy telling us they ordered a new engine and he hooped it would be in by 2/5 and that the vehicle would be available for us to pick up shortly after that. I'm pretty nervous after reading all the issues that others have had that this could be an ongoing problem and even with a new engine we may have the same or a similar problem. Time will tell I guess.
