my low coolant light kept coming on so i checked my fluids and all seemed fine. But as i took the radiator cap off a bunch of fluids backed up into the reservoir. I immediately took the car to my service shop and within a few minutes the mechanic informed me that i had a cracked head. Needless to say I was shocked!! But what shocked me more was when he told me how common this problem is because the Chevy manufacturer uses plastic gaskets. He told me that without a doubt these gaskets are sure to fail. He also said he couldn't believe there wasn't a class action suit against GM for this problem. Im actively searching for such lawsuits. This is costing me $1900.00 which I DO NOT HAVE!!! I have a critically ill husband that I take to and from doctors appts. weekly so I have no choice but to get it fixed. Ive known several people who have worked for GM and Im very surprised that such a large company would allow this to go on. ITS NOT RIGHT!!! I am very dissappointed and disgusted with GM. Especially since my husband worked loyally for GM for over 31 years!
