Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On 2/1/07 my car started running rough, with no ses light coming on. after a couple of weeks the ses light came on and i took the car to the dealer for repairs. a defective intake manifold gasket had caused the rough idle, and the dealer said that if i left go to long enough it could have caused the engine to seize up. my car has only 37,315 miles on it and is garaged when not in use. a new intake manifold gasket was replaced for a cost of $463.44. i do not hot rod this car or abuse it in any fashion, i am 52 years old. if i had ignored the ses light i could have had an accident if the engine would have failed in traffic. *jb
