Perhaps there were exceptions, but I suspect that the vast majority of the engines that experienced sludge problems should have been following the "Severe Duty" oil change schedule.
Granted, everyone would have been better served had GM listed that as the "typical" requirement, and then also included an "Optimal Oil Use" schedule that some of us see with our typical driving.
