Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My daughter brought a used 1996 lumina.she drove it about a month before it started acting up. she lost heat and car would go to overheat and stall. when she got it checked she was told that the intake gasget was shot. this allowed the antifreeze go into the engine. as a result the seller won't do anything about it. she would have to pay more than she paid for it to repair it. so we are very dissapointed with the car. i would never buy one again as i found this is a very common think in luminas for several years running.
