Consumer Description

THIS INTAKE VALVE HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE ALREADY ON MY CAR IN MARCH OF 2000, NOW LESS THAN TWO YEARS LATER I AM HAVING TO HAVE IT REPLACED AGAIN AT A COST OF 650.00, I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPT. THAT CHEVROLET IS NOW MAKING A BETTER INTAKE VALVE BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM IN THE MALIBUS, IF THIS IS THE CASE THEY SHOULD HANDLE SOME OF THIS COST IF NOT ALL. THANK YOU
