| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Engine head gasket has been leaking for a while and finally went. heard numerous reports and read articals ranging from a show by 'motor trend ' to dealer comments on the problem with defective head gaskets in 3.8l engines. also, know numerous people with an engine like mine ,have experienced the same problem. the "light bar" inside the taillights are another problem, you don't see a t-bird on the road today that doesn't have at least part of their tail lights burned out so i know its not just mine and they started doing this many miles ago! i take good care of my vehicles,so i know this is not from abuse! like i said when dealers tell you they're having a problem with certain parts and car shows,magazines , and consumer reports say there is something wrong with ahead gasket on a certain engine you know you're not alone! replacing a head gasket is an expensive repair , i thought i would check into this before footing the bill myself. please let me know as soon as you can if anything can be done about this as i'm not able to drive the car ...thanks ,lynn. *ak |
