3 Manifold/header/muffler/tail Pipe problem of the 2001 Saturn SL2

Failure Date: 02/13/2004

We had to have the intake manifold gasket replaced on our 2001 Saturn Sl2 with only 41,500 miles. The car received regular maintenance and was just out of warranty. I understand this may be a common problem with gm vehicles and believe that Saturn should be responsible for the cost of the repair.
