Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: There is a defective intake gasket on 3.4l engines that are installed in many of the gm models. i have been told by numerous repair shops and a service manager at a chevrolet dealership that he replaces about 1 or 2 a day and can't believe that gm hasn't been forced into a recall. there has been 2 to 3 updates since 1999 in an attempt to correct problem. the new part # that was installed in my engine is 89017279. is there any recourse against gm in this matter?? i have been getting the royal runaround between gm customer service and the dealership i bought the van from in april 2003.
