Consumer Description

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS SINCE FEBRUARY, AN IGNITION COIL HAS FAILED IN MY LS(# 2,3,AND 6). EACH TIME THE REPAIR HAS COST ALMOST $300, AND IN ADDITION SINCE THE DEALER THOUGHT A SMALL LEAK IN THE VALVE COVER GASKET MAY HAVE CAUSED THE PROBLEM WITH #3, THAT WAS REPLACED FOR AN ADDITIONAL $225. IN THE 45 YEARS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING, I HAVE NEVER HAD A COIL GO BAD. THERE IS CLEARLY A DEFECT IN THE ORIGINAL COILS OR ENGINE DESIGN. THE DEALER HAS INDICATED THAT THEY HAVE REPLACED MANY OF THESE ON LS'S. *AK
