I'm sure I read that Fiat bought out GM or is buying out GM, will see if I can find it and post a link.

VM Motori started supplying Chrysler in 1992, with the Chrysler Voyager’s diesel option; it was owned by Detroit Diesel at the time, spent some time being owned 50/50 by General Motors and Fiat, and is now entirely owned by Fiat. VM Motori currently powers several European Chrysler and Jeep cars, as well as (as of Februrary 2011) the Chevrolet Captiva, London Taxi, and other vehicles.

That Allpar article is the only one you'll find that claims GM sold it's stake.
If you can find another source, I'd love to see it.
Everyhing I've found indicates that it's still a joint venture.
Here are just a few, including VM's own website.
There are many, many more you'll find via google:
