If someone else made the part for GM, it is both their faults. GM did buy the parts from this company.

You can say that about many parts in many different lines. Toyota's larger recalls have been due to third party US supplied parts too. It is still the manufacturers fault though, as they approved the use of the parts.

It does not matter who or where the transfer case was made. When GM puts a part on one of their vehicles - THEY TAKE OWNERSHIP OF SAID PART, AND ASSUME 100% OF THE RESPONSIBILITY!
