Consumer Description

ENGINE WAS BURNING OIL AT AN ALARMING RATE, WAS STARTING TO STALL WHENEVER THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP WHILE IN DRIVE, AND WAS LOUDER THAN NORMAL. SENT VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THE PVC MANIFOLD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE TOTAL COST WAS $812.00 WITH PARTS AND LABOR TO REPLACE. THE CAR HAS UNDER 100K MILES AND APPARENTLY GM WILL NOT COVER THE COST IN ANYWAY. WAS ALSO TOLD THIS ISSUE COULD HAVE CAUSED MY ENGINE TO BLOW IF NOT CAUGHT IN ENOUGH TIME.
