Consumer Description

LOW COOLANT LIGHT CAME ON WHILE WIFE WAS DRIVING AND SHE SAID TEMPERATURE GAUGE SOARED THEN DROPPED, SHE PULLED OUT AND DROVE AGAIN AND IT SOARED THEN DROPPED AGAIN ALONG WITH LOW COOLANT LIGHT. SAW ON THE INTERNET THIS IS COMMON FOR 1998 CHEVY VENTURE AND OTHERS. A LOT OF MINIVANS WITH KIDS AND SPOUSES OUT THERE ENCOUNTERING THIS. I CHECKED THE ENGINE UPON ARRIVAL AND THINK IT MAY BE AN INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET FAILURE AND HAVE CONTACTED A LOCAL SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE. *LA
