Question 2012 Equinox engines?

Was told by a repair person that antifreeze blowing into the oil...... I was told it had been recalled but this vehicle was never fixed. I could not find it recalled when I put in VIN on search sites. Was told it needed a new or rebuilt/ used engine. Has anyone else had this happen or heard of this recall? Did you remedy this in anyway?
