New GMO Corn Ethanol Will Ruin Your Car and Void Your Warranty
You already know that GMO corn ruins your body – but did you know that it may also soon be damaging your car? E15 GMO corn will ruin your engine if your car was made before 2012, warns AAA, and though the EPA has promoted this GMO fuel, numerous car manufacturers are saying that they won’t honor E15 GMO ethanol damage under warranties.
AAA suspects a strong likelihood for consumer confusion about ethanol use since most cars in America being driven are pre-2012.
“It is clear that millions of Americans are unfamiliar with E15, which means there is a strong possibility that many motorists may improperly fill up using this gasoline and damage their vehicle,” said AAA President & CEO Robert Darbelnet. “Bringing E15 to the market without adequate safeguards does not responsibly meet the needs of consumers.”
The EPA is planning to approve the fuel anyhow, even though BMW, Chrysler, Nissan, Toyota, VW, GM, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, and Volvo, among others, say that the fuel will ruin cars, and they won’t honor people’s warranties who use it. Here is the kicker, though – the GMO ethanol will contain up to 15% E15, but it won’t be labeled as GMO, so you likely won’t even know you are putting it in your car.
This time the unlabeled GMO poison won’t be on shelves at your local grocery store, but at the gas pump. Sounds like it is time for an electric vehicle purchase, or to move completely out of the U.S. This GMO business is getting absolutely ridiculous. Its makers want to hijack every single industry.

The only vehicles currently approved by automakers to use E15 are flex-fuel models, 2001 model-year and newer Porsches, 2012 model-year and newer GM vehicles, and 2013 model-year Ford vehicles. While some auto makers oppose the use of this fuel, you can bet key figures in the auto industry are in on this plan, with the influence of biotech monsters like Monsanto.
This will also affect your motorcycle, your power equipment, off road vehicles, boats, and lawnmowers.
There are no ‘adequate safeguards’ for GMOs. They have already ruined the guts of animals, caused cancer and reproductive health issues in humans, and altered the natural world for an untold number of years. Our bees and other pollinators have suffered, our heirloom seeds have suffered, our ground water has suffered. We have suffered. How much suffering will we take for this to finally end?
What about the exhaust from E15? Does that make some of the GMO airborne?
I prefer Fracking waste polluted Flammable Tap Water to e15! It’s much cheaper and all I need is turn on the tap to get it,
It is the % ethanol that can be the problem, not that it is from GMO corn.
The GMO issue is NOT relevant to the E15 ethanol issue. GMO or not, corn is corn, and 15% Ethanol is the problem. Since cars are not a biological system, GMO is not relevant to this issue. That’s pretty transparent ….
I agree. The article is misleading. There are enough reasons to distrust GMO products, but using GMO and not the percentage of Ethanol discredits the objectivity of the writer.
I think the point that is being made is that GMO technology is allowing the biotech corporations to upscale its influence into more diverse markets and thus cause harm beyond the biological realm too. After all making ethanol from corn has suddenly become profitable due to the greenwashing effect by government which we all know is pro industry/anti human.
15% Ethanol will damage the engines of cars built before 2012. The fact that GMO technology has made it profitable it could be said legitimately that the GMO product is the cause.
If corn wasn’t genetically modified it would be more attractive to foreign markets as a food commodity whereas as a GMCorn it is not wanted inmany foreign markets.
Does California use 1500 gallons of water to grow corn to produce 1 gallon of GMO fuel ethanol? Does California water providers check for ethanol in the supply water for public consumption? Should Gov. Brown request Conversation with EPA about a waiver of the “Wallet Flushing” ethanol mandate so fuel ethanol ozone is in compliance?
The problem isn’t GMOs as the chemical composition of any chemical is uniform throughout the same molecule. The reason why E15 is bad is because many fuel systems aren’t designed to run high levels of ethanol, GM or non-GM.
