Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Replaced plenum on 1996 pontiac bonneville three times. last time was approximately at 87,000 miles. faulty (plastic) part allowed antifreeze and oil to mix in the engine causing stalling (in the middle of a busy state road intersection, a safety hazard). the mixing of the fluids allows the engine to burn the antifreeze and by the time you realize anything you are overheated. this was the third time i had the same problem.*ak
