While I hadn't heard or read about it in the news, I received the following notice from GM for my 2001 Bonneville:
"This notice is sent to you to inform you that General Motors is conducting a voluntary customer satisfaction program that affects certain 2000-2003 Chevrolet Impala, Monte Carlo; Pontiac Grand Prix, Bonneville; Buick Regal, LeSabre and Park Avenue model vehicles eqipped with 3800 Series II (L36) V6 engines.
We have learned that your vehicle may develop an engine coolant leak at the upper intake manifold to throttle body gasket, or at the lower intake to upper intake gasket. This service will be performed for you at no charge through July 31, 2005."
I called the Service Department at my local dealer and they apparently have not yet received any information on this matter. Have I missed a news release or is this matter being "quietly" dealt with? Would the dealerships not normally be provided with the program details prior to advising customers?
