Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Noticed a smell of antifreeze around my 1999 chevrolet malibu. looked and found the intake manifold gasket was leaking antifreeze. this car is driven by my wife, and thankfully has not left her beside of the road. will replace the gaskets on my own, will have the old parts available. found a lot of people with the same problem. and if no problem why did gm redesign the gasket (part # 89017279). why also is there a service bulletin on this dated march 2003 ( # 03-06-01-010). why has a recall not been started. this problem could start a fire in the engine bay, and a whole list of other things. *nm |
