Consumer Description

TOOK THE VENTURE MINIVAN IN FOR BRAKES AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS NOT LOSING ANY RADIATOR FLUID BUT HOW DO YOU ARGUE WITH A DEALERSHIP THAT WANTS TO MAKE MONEY. FROM THE WEB AND THIS SITE, GM HAS A DEFECTIVE INTAKE MANIFOLD SEAL THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED FREE TO CHARGE. A SERVICE BULLETIN WAS EVEN ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM. SHAME ON GM. *NM
