| 2002 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE | 2002 CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO. ONLY HAS 59,000 MILES. CAR STALLED IN TRAFFIC. NO CRASH/ACCIDENT RESULTED. INTAKE GASKET LEAKED ANTI-FREEZE INTO ENGINE AND OIL LUBRICATION SYSTEM. THE ANTI-FREEZE GOT INTO THE BALL BEARINGS (AS WELL AS REST OF ENGINE) AND CAUSED CORROSION DAMAGE AND MISFIRES. THE ENGINE THREW A ROD. THE NEAREST CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THE ENGINE MUST BE REPLACED, AND WILL COST $5,000 DOLLARS. WARRANTY IS NO LONGER ACTIVE DESPITE LOW MILEAGE DUE TO NUMBER OF YEARS THAT HAVE PASSED, NOR WILL THEY OFFER A DISCOUNT. HOWEVER, THIS PROBLEM IS A NOTORIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE 3.4L V6 ENGINE OFFERED BY CHEVROLET/HM. HOWEVER, THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM DESPITE THE FACT THAT THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ARE LISTED ALL ACROSS THE INTERNET ON THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. THIS ISSUE CAN ALSO CAUSE MANIFOLD EXPLOSIONS AND COLLAPSES AND RELATED ENGINE FAILURES. *TR |
