Engine Cooling System Problems of GMC Sonoma

In Dec. Of 2003 the check engine light came on, so we took it in only to find we had oil in our radiator. At a cost of $800. 00 we had it repaired. Well in sept. Of 2004 we saw something leaking from the vehicle, and again we have oil in our radiator.

The heater on my vehicle has stopped working and the manufacture (GMC) and the dealership refuse to cover it under warranty. There is a NHTSA bullerin on this (634218). I would like to know how many other vehicles like mine (1999 GMC Sonoma) have experienced this problem.

We have a 1997 GMC Sonoma with a votrec 4. 3 x. Over 2 years ago, we started getting misfires. We tried everything we could think of, to no avail. In the past month I've put over $500 alone. I have been looking it up on-line, and have realized, I'm not the only one with this issue. There has even been a recall in California, but only there. Gm told me they have different gas out there. Another major safety issue has been the wiper motor failure, that had a recall. Gm told me my VIN # was not on the list, but I battle my wipers at least once a month. I have to yank the blades half way up the window before they grab and start to work. One more problem that I now know I am not alone on is the issue with dex-cool. We have flushed and refilled the system at least three times, only to have it gunk-up again. Please help me and all the other customers who got trapped with junk vehicles. We have had too many other failures to count!.

No summary listed for above vehicle.

Oil cooler line located too close to oil pan, rubs against unit.

Water pump failed.

Noticed smell for long time. Started to try and fix 7 months ago, 11/17. Filling leaking coolant, noticing fluxuations in engine temp. Changed thermostat. Received notification letter(specifically stating not recall campaign) from GMC postmarked 5/30/00 of this problem. Dealer conflict on fixing this for me. Concerned about combustion and my family's safety.
