Consumer Description

AT APPROXIMATELY 47,000 MILES THERE WAS DETERMINED TO BE A CONSUMPTION OF COOLANT, WITH NO LEAKS OUTSIDE OF THE ENGINE. THERE WAS THEN A LEAK THAT STARTED OUTSIDE OF THE ENGINE A FEW HUNDRED MILES LATER. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER FOR REPAIR ($800) OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET. UPON RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THIS FAILURE IS VERY COMMON TO THE GM V6 ENGINES (WHICH THE SERVICE MANAGER CONFIRMED). THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!! GM IS AWARE OF THIS WITH TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 03-06-01-010. *NM
