| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Due to intake manifold gasket leak (this is the fourth time for this problem on this vehicle) i had to stop to add coolant in order to safely drive the vehicle. had i not noticed the problem this potentially could have left me stranded on the side of the highway. after getting to a safe location i had the vehicle towed to a dealer for repair. also, as i stated above this is my fourth time dealing with this issue; in addition, i know of personally 3 other vehicles with the same engine that have had the same problem and they too have changed the intake gasket several times.*ak |
