2003 Buick LeSabre Limited review from North America

My reason for sending this message is to back up the information I have read on your site about the GM 3800 engine. I own this 2003 Buick LeSabre Limited now that just had the upper plenum replaced at 24,000 miles. It was covered by warranty.

I traded my 2001 Buick LeSabre in on this car. This 2001 also had the upper plenum gasket replaced around 50,000 miles. I was lucky however I had taken insurance out on that one so that covered the expense. My point is this. The problem is happening on all GM 3800 engines regardless of car make, or model. And it should be handled as a recall as frequent as it is happening to everyone. I love the car in every other way and will continue to purchase the 3800 engine as the economy is great on it. I also have been told that the 2005's have an improved gasket.
