Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Dt*: the contact stated the low coolant light illuminated and the vehicle was not warming up properly. the dealership determined the antifreeze was leaking into the oil. the manifold gasket was replaced. when the problem returned the manifold gasket was replaced a second time. two other members of contact's family had the same things go wrong with their vehicles. the dealer won't help the contact to defray the expenses because he used an independent mechanic that once worked at the dealership. there weren't too many dealerships in the contact's area. also, the contact knew many people who had similar engine problems. *ak
