Car Freeze Plug Questions and Answers - This category contains featured
questions as examples. They relate to most vehicles.
Question: 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier mileage: 59,000. Is it common for a 'Chevy
with only 59,000 miles to have a freeze plug go bad? It's the plug on the back of
the engine between the transmission. A very costly repair. Do you know of any service
bulletins or recalls?
Answer: It is not common to have a freeze plug fail on a six year-old
car. The coolant should be changed every two to three years as it does break down
over time and becomes corrosive. We do not know of any relevant service bulletins
or recalls.
Question: 1996 Chevrolet 1500 mileage: 195,000. When a freeze plug
goes out is it necessary to replace all the remaining plugs?
Answer: No it is not "necessary" to replace the non-leaking freeze plugs.
However, it will not be long before they probably will be leaking too. It
really is easier to just replace all of them at once.
