My 1999 Pontiac Grand Am, with 43,000 miles on it, and just over the warranty, was leaking coolant from the intake manifold gasket. I purchased the vehicle new. The low coolant light had been coming on and when I took the car to the Service Dept. of Miskinis Motors, Bridgewater, MA, the dealership where I purchased the car, for an oil change, I asked that they check the coolant. I was told that the intake manifold gasket needed to be replaced and the job would cost $865.00 (including the oil change and coolant flush). The reason being, that the job was very "labor intensive".

I later asked another mechanic at a local garage for an estimate and was told it would be $460.00 (I did not need the coolant flush or most of the parts/labor the dealer was trying to sell).

The dealers should not ripoff their coustomers either, but I feel GM should have issued a recall for this problem and should reimburse their customers for this repair work if it was not covered under warranty.

#3 Consumer Suggestion

careless auto makers

AUTHOR: Anne - (Canada)

POSTED: Tuesday, August 03, 2004

I bought a 1995 Pontiac Sunfire in 1995. I and my two children were almost killed in a very serious accident in 1995. I recieved a recall letter in spring of 1996 and it was too late. A got an insulting $500 offer in 1998 to componsate for very serious damages and a lifetime of injury. Me and my family have injuries that can't be fix with billion of dollars. General Motors sell unsafe vehicules to society.

Free trade has gaven them the opportunity to make more money with the use of poor untrain people in Mexico by paying them low wages. General Motors could of improved the safety of this car with 75 cent but refuse. Satisfaction is unreachable but deception is real. Their immature offer will stand in court. I will fight with all my might and with all I have left and I will never let go. I will seek justice night and day.

I won't let them sleep either and they will never will forget me as long as General Motors exist and well behond.
