| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: This all started in dec of 2002, the coolant was leaking into the oil due to a intake manifold gasket failure. i replaced this at a cost of 850.00. after reading all the complaints on this from other websites i decided to write the bbb also who wrote back stating not gms fault since they have not had any complaints. thats a lie, because there is a thousand of them on the internet including a petition-on-line. anyway though, after only one month after i fixed the manifold gasket the engine went anyway and since i still have a large "balance due" on the car i had to get the engine repaired at a price of $4300.00. my mechanic though at least guarantees me on this engine of 3 years or 75000 miles. more of a warranty than gm gave me. i also want to note that before i got the gasket replaced, i went to the chevrolet dealership i bought the van from...he didnt even look under the engine but knew immediately that i had this gasket problem and offered me only $1000.00 for the van for a trade in...he knew we still owed 7000.00 on it. i will never buy american gm products again. |
