Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: In march 2006 at 73,277 miles i had to have the intake manifold gaskets, valve cover gaskets & water pump assembly replaced due to a constant antifreeze leak. then in april 2007 at 87,452 miles had to have the head gasket replaced due to the same problem. was told by the mechanic this was a common problem & gm even changed the intake manifold so the one i had put on in 2007 was different than the one in 2006 because they have had so many problems. seemed like they should be reimbursing people & having a recall because they obviously knew about the problem. *ak
