problem #6

Mar 282008

Grand Prix 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 150,000 miles
Pontiac released a recall of 1997-" Grand Prix's due to a severe engine oil leak that can cause the car to catch fire. We have a 1995 Grand Prix with a 3.1L engine that has a severe oil leak also. The leak has been diagnosed from the lower intake manifold gasket with a $1000 repair estimate. I believe the engine is almost identical to the ones used in 1997-" model years. Pontiac should include all Grand Prix's with this engine in their recall!
