Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: In 11/05, at approximately 43k miles, my 2003 buick rendezvous cxl required a new intake gasket & thermostat after the vehicle rapidly lost all of its engine coolant and i was forced to make an emergency stop. this was a certified used gm vehicle, but the warranty expired at 39k miles so i incurred at $700+ repair bill. now, at 59k miles, i am having a similar problem; the engine coolant overheated, also leading to an emergency stop and towing, and the repair shop says that the same intake gasket has failed again. *jb
