Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2001 chevy impala and it has been leaking engine coolant for sometime now. we put the required dexcool coolant to replace the lost, but it just kept on leaking. we took it to a mechanic to repair it and he informed us that it was leaking from the intake gasket down onto the spark plugs and it was damaging the spark plugs. he said don't put dexcool coolant into the car again because it just damages the gaskets. he said i cant tell u how many times i have had to repair this same thing on chevrolet vehicles. total repairs $749.43 . there needs to be a recall on this. not just because of the dexcool coolant but because of the gaskets. *nm
