Chronic coolant leak, caused by defective, plastic intake manifold gaskets. Engine never showed it was hot. Based on my research this is a recurring problem with this engine. GM should stand behind their products and fix this instead of continuing to use the same defective parts for over 5 years in a number of GM vehicles. I will never buy another GM product!

Dealer and Pontiac customer division refuse a buy back or trade in. Sent package to General Motors to make them aware of the situation and they refused the package all together. Pontiac tells me their field rep went to talk to john moore and he refused a buy back so in turn, so did Pontiac. I just would like a car that runs. This is my second Pontiac that has been a lemon. I have all documentaion to prove it. How does a single mom working two jobs get help? its costed me a fortune in missed work.( dot number: Tire size: P195/65R15 )
