Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO 53,000 MILES ON IT WITH INTERMEDIATE SHAFT PROBLEMS AND INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET PROBLEMS. BOTH ARE APPARENTLY COMMON ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL. CHEVROLET SHOULD MAKE THESE REPAIRS. THE STEERING CAN BE AFFECTED, WHICH IS A HAZARD AND THE GASKET COULD CAUSE ENGINE FREEZE UP WHILE DRIVING, ALSO A HAZARD. *JB
