Consumer Description

AT 70,000 MILES MY ENGINE HAD A BLOWN HEAD GASKET AND A CRACKED HEAD WHICH HAS COST ME A TOTAL OF $1000.00 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. I CONTACTED G.M. AND THEY TOLD ME '93 & '92 MODELS WERE REACALLED FOR THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM, HOWEVER MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL. I FEEL I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR MY COST SINCE MY ENGINE PROBLEM IS IDENTICAL TO THE PREVIOUS RECALL. *AK
