Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The car made a horrible knocking noise shortly after i bought it brand new. 5 different dealers stated that the teflon from the rocker arms in the engine wore out and thatw as what was making the awful noise. itwas cosmetic, so to fix it would cost a lot of money. *ak also, the intake manifold on the car has cracked causing the engine/radiator to leak anifreeze out the exaust. gm needs to recall these cars because of all the problems. i can go on and on with my car. i have maintained it every 3,000 miles meticously and should not have this problem with a car that only has 60,000 miles.
