Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My car was running hot and it smell like something was burning under the hood, so i took the car in to the shop to have fix and the worker told me it was a defective intake manifold gaskets. it would cost me close to $850 to fix. the part itself only cost $89, but the labor is what i was paying for. i cannot afford to keep fixing this car on a college student budget. after talking to other malibu owners with the same problems i check to see if it is a recall problem, but it is not. this is not fair that the company know they sold defective cars and not plan on doing anything about it. *nm
