problem #1

Bravada 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 60,000 miles
I have a 1999 Oldsmobile Bravada that has developed a serious leak in the oil lines (hoses) going to the oil cooler. I also owned a 2000 GMC sonoma that developed the same leaks while under warranty. My mechanic said they have replaced the oil lines on several vehicles with the 4.3 and 350 engines. They have also replaced 3 engines where the oil lines failed and the engine lost all oil. It seems this problem exists on nearly all if not all of GM's products using the rubber oil lines. Can anything be done to correct this problem or reimburse our repair costs due to an apparent defect? not to mention the damage to the engines and garage floors. Thank you ron.
