| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Coolant leak .. again in my 1998 chevrolet malibu! i had my intake gasket replaced approximately two years ago due to car over heating and a coolant leak. my extended warranty covered it at that time but not without a struggle. i have since been told in the past month that this same repair needs to be done again and that i'm looking at anywhere from $600.00 - $1000.00 for the repair and this will come out of my pocket. from the consumer complaints that i've read on the internet and the service bulletin out on the specific problem, gm obviously knows that this is in issue. why aren't they forced to put out a recall? this could be a dangerous problem.*ak |
