Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: As appears to be common with the engine in this vehicle, the intake gasket failed causing dexcool to leak into the engine and thus contaminating not only engine oil, but causing failure of critical internal components due to the fact that dexcool deteriorates/weakens certain metals, etc. in our case, the vehicle's engine completely failed while driving 60 mph on a 6 lane expressway with no prior indication of problems. gm is aware of the problem but refuses to take any responsibility for its inferior design! a recall should be begun immediately. without quick, calm reaction my preganant wife and two children could have been rear-ended and severly injured or killed. how would gm deal with the publicity of that lawsuit! |
