Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I had taken my vehicle in to get a simple oil change and was informed my vehicle has a faulty intake manifold gasket which is a very expensive repair costing any where from$ 800-$1000.00 . on my searching the internet i have found that this is one of the problems that gm cars are having over 70,000 miles. intake manifold leaks can lead to any number of very serious, and expensive problems. while the part itself isn't costly, the labor to repair is costly. *nm
