My 2000 pontiac grandam gt was bought new and with 24,000 miles on it in 2004 the lower intake manifold was leaking dexcool. Kaiser pontiac in deland florida fixed the problem and now in 2009 with 50,000 miles the exact same problem is occurring. After reading several (80) complaints online there should be a recall on this problem.
