Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 CHEVY MALIBU WITH 38000 MILES. THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET IS LEAKING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL. I WAS TOLD THERE HAVE BEEN MANY GASKET FAILURES ON THE MALIBU BUT THERE IS NO RECALL. REPAIR COST IS ESTIMATED AT $645.00 BY THE DEALER. I AM NOW UNABLE TO AFFORD THE REPAIR OR SAFELY DRIVE THE CAR FOR FEAR OF DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. THE CAR IS NOW IN STORAGE. *JB
