Consumer Description

I OWN A 2000 CHEVY. MONTE CARLO. A REVIEW OF THE SERVICE BULLETINS SHOWS THAT THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH LOWER AND UPPER INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS. MY MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME IT LEAKING IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL, BUT EVERYONE WANTS $500 TO $600 TO REPLACE JUST ONE GASKET. IF THERE ARE SERVICE BULLETINS, AND IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, WHY ARE CONSUMERS MADE TO PAY FOR THIS? OR HAS GM BEEN TOLD TO REPAIR THIS FOR CUSTOMERS? I HAVE HAD TO HAVE SEVERAL THINGS REPLACED MORE THAN ONCE. SUCH AS THE WINDOW MOTORS ASSEMBLIES, ON THE DRIVER SIDE MORE THAN THREE TIMES ALONE. *TR
