Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 1998 chevy malibu's 3.1l engine required an intake manifold gasket at around 30000 miles. my car has been using more fluid lately and i am thinking that the gasket will once again require replacing. secondly, my car rusted around the doors and the hood seams. i took the car to the dealer where they fixed the problem under warranty. it has been four months since the repairs and the seams look worse than ever.
