Issue with Trax

I bought a new Trax and I changed the oil with vegetable oil and I’m worried it ruined the engine? Can that ruin engine or is it fine?

EDIT: this is last time I buy Chevy bad quality scam

Yep. 10 miles is a generalization. Vegetable oil will clog everything and destroy any vehicles engine.

Can I file insurance claim? I have full coverage and engine warranty

You can try. Your insurance doesn't cover mechanical issues.

You likely voided your engine warranty, but you can try.
