Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a 1999 chevy venture which has been driven 26,000 miles. i took my vehicle in foran oil change and on inspection the dealer found coolant leaking from all four corners of the lower intake manifold gasket. they replaced the lower intake manifold gaket and related gaskets at a cost to me of $753.88. the service supervisor informed me that there was a defect in the gaskets and that they have been seeing and fixing this problem on vehicles with this particular motor. he informed us that if we did not get our vechicle repaired that the engine might seize up. i called the corporate office for chevrolet and they stated that there was no recall on the faulty gaskets at this time. iak
